Whether we are rich or poor, old or young, we all need some form of plan for our estate to preserve our wealth, protect what we have worked very hard to obtain, make things as easy as possible for our loved ones we leave behind and provide peace of mind that our wishes will be followed should we become incapacitated or deceased. The typical “Estate Plan” will include a Living Trust, Durable Powers of Attorney, Advance Healthcare Directives and Pour Over Wills.

Our Firm will help you through the complicated California probate process, from start to finish. We are dedicated to answering all of your questions and concerns in a timely manner with quality advice and compassion. We can also help you understand your rights as an heir, beneficiary or creditor of a probate estate. We can probate an estate in San Diego, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino or any other County in California.

For most clients, the appropriate plan will include a Living Trust. The advantages of a Living Trust include the ease of transferring property without the need for probate and the significant expenses that are associated with it. A Living Trust can also be an important tool in reducing or eliminating the amount of estate tax paid upon your passing. A Living Trust will also provide for you should you become incapacitated and allow you to avoid the necessity of a Court Appointed Conservator.
