You cannot negotiate probate fees. They are set by statute.
4% of the first $100k
3% of the next $100k
2% of the next $800k
1% after that
And it is calculated on gross value, not your equity.

Medicare does not pay for long-term care.
That single misunderstanding is why families end up selling the house to cover a facility.
Most people are not afraid of dying. They are afraid of becoming a burden.

Parents rarely ask about taxes first.
They ask what happens to their child's inheritance if the marriage ends.
It is a fair question, and there is a real answer. The inheritance can stay theirs.

Everyone has an estate plan.
Either you wrote it, or California did.
The state's version is written in statute, fixed in order, and goes through the whole probate process.

A signed trust with nothing in it is an expensive piece of paper.
The house, the accounts, the beneficiary designations all have to match.
People come to me with the binder and still go through probate.

What a real plan is made of
A funded revocable living trust
Power of attorney
Healthcare directive
HIPAA authorizations
Not fill-in-the-blank forms. The questions we ask are what make it hold.

The second an inheritance hits their account, it is up for grabs.
Creditors. Lawsuits. Ex-spouses.
You can structure a plan so that never happens. Most people simply are not told that.

They came in four years ago and decided a trust cost too much.

That letter about your deed is not from the county.

It looks official. It uses your real property records, a barcode, and a respond-by date. And it asks $89 to $135 for a copy of a deed you already own. The county sells the same document for a few dollars, and your original was mailed back to you after recording.

Do not pay it. If a letter about your home or your trust ever makes you pause, send us a photo first and we will tell you whether it is real, free.
