Estate, Trusts, and Probate

Estate planning involves making important decisions about the management and distribution of your assets, healthcare preferences, and legal authority in the event of incapacity or death. In California, an attorney can provide invaluable assistance with various aspects of estate planning, including:


  1. Trusts: An attorney can help you establish a trust, which allows you to specify how your assets will be managed and distributed. Trusts can provide benefits such as avoiding probate, reducing estate taxes, and protecting your assets for your beneficiaries.
  2. Advanced Health Care Directive: This document allows you to outline your healthcare preferences in case you become unable to make decisions for yourself. An attorney can ensure your wishes are clearly documented and legally binding, providing peace of mind that your healthcare decisions will be respected.
  3. Power of Attorney: A power of attorney grants someone you trust the authority to manage your financial and legal affairs if you are unable to do so. An attorney can help you draft a comprehensive and precise power of attorney to ensure your interests are safeguarded.


By working with an experienced estate planning attorney, you can ensure that your plans are legally sound, clearly articulated, and tailored to your specific needs and goals. If you need assistance with a trust, advanced health care directive, or power of attorney, we are here to help guide you through the process.
