What is Estate Planning?

Estate planning involves the legal process of organizing your financial affairs and making arrangements for the distribution of your assets after your death. It also includes planning for incapacity, ensuring that your healthcare and financial decisions are made according to your wishes if you’re unable to do so. Our California estate planning attorneys work with you to develop a customized strategy that protects your assets and ensures your legacy is secure.

Our Estate Planning Services in California:

Wills and Trusts

We assist clients in drafting legally sound wills and trusts to ensure that their assets are distributed according to their wishes. Our attorneys will guide you in choosing the right type of trust for your needs, whether it be a revocable living trust, irrevocable trust, or special needs trust. We ensure your will or trust is clear, enforceable, and designed to minimize estate taxes.

Advanced Healthcare Directives

An Advanced Healthcare Directive allows you to designate someone to make medical decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Our attorneys will help you create a healthcare directive that reflects your values and preferences, ensuring your medical care aligns with your wishes.

Power of Attorney

We help clients establish durable Power of Attorney documents, allowing a trusted individual to manage financial or legal matters if you are unable to do so. This ensures your affairs are properly handled in the event of illness or incapacity.

Probate Avoidance Strategies

Probate can be a lengthy and costly process for your beneficiaries. Our estate planning attorneys implement strategies to help you avoid probate in California, such as the creation of living trusts and the appropriate titling of assets.

Estate Tax Planning

Minimizing estate taxes is a key component of comprehensive estate planning. Our firm provides estate tax planning strategies to help you preserve more of your wealth for your beneficiaries, ensuring that taxes do not erode your estate’s value.

Asset Protection

We help individuals protect their assets from creditors, lawsuits, and other risks. Through strategic asset protection planning, we can create trusts and legal structures designed to shield your wealth while ensuring compliance with California and federal laws.

Business Succession Planning

For business owners, it’s crucial to have a plan in place for the transition of ownership. Our estate planning attorneys will help you develop a business succession plan to ensure your business is transferred smoothly to your heirs or designated successors.
