San Diego Estate Planning Attorney
ESTATE
PLANNING
The
administration of an estate, including the planning for the distribution
of a client's property at death, requires the services of a knowledgeable
attorney. We provide services including but not limited to preparation
of Wills, Advanced Health Care Directive, Power of Attorney, Nomination
of Guardian, Living Trusts and related documents.
We
devote significant attention to drafting each document to accomplish
the intent of our clients and secure appropriate distribution of
assets in accordance with their wishes. We will ensure that appropriate
provisions are included to meet their estate needs, and provide
for ease of administration for the client’s personal representative
responsible for concluding the client’s affairs after death.
Trusts
Trusts are not limited to matters after death, but include inter
vivos trusts, created for use during the client's life. Living Trusts
enable the client to manage their funds in a way that avoids the
expenses of probate. In order to establish a secure and regular
income for loved ones left behind, many clients seek advice on Trust
establishment and administration. By maintaining your assets in
a Trust, you can minimize taxes and leave a larger inheritance.
The use of a Trust is also a way to provide a steady income to the
Beneficiary over the course of time, rather than distribution in
a lump sum. This strategy can reduce the Beneficiary's tax and allow
the Trust to grow through investment. Trusts can also be established
that allow charitable organizations to benefit.
As
we get older, many of us are faced with difficult and important
decisions regarding our healthcare and our financial well-being.
We can help you plan for both the present and the future.
