My mission is to make sure that everyone is protected during and after their lives, so they can leave an inheritance to their family; safe guarded from the government and distributed according to their wishes. I do not want anyone to go without the necessary documents to protect themselves or their family. I have made it my goal to be as accessible as possible to every type of client; virtually or by traveling to them, if needed. In addition to California, I can also serve those in the state of Arizona.

Chadwick Boseman was a Hollywood superstar worth millions… yet he died without a will or trust. 😳

The result? His estate went through PUBLIC probate, and California intestacy law—not an estate plan created by Chadwick—determined who inherited his probate estate.

His widow received 50%, while his parents were each entitled to 25%. Now, nearly SIX YEARS after his death, his family is back in court. Chadwick's brothers, Derrick and Kevin Boseman, have filed a petition on behalf of their parents, Leroy and Carolyn, asking the court to remove Chadwick's widow as administrator of the estate. They allege that the estate still has not been fully distributed despite a 2022 court order.

And this is exactly why estate planning matters.

A properly drafted and funded trust could have allowed Chadwick to decide:

⚖️ Who controlled and administered his assets
💰 Who received what—and when
🔒 How much of his estate administration remained private
📋 How his legacy, royalties, and other assets would be handled

Would a trust guarantee that his family would never disagree? Of course not. But it could have avoided probate for properly funded trust assets and provided Chadwick's own instructions instead of relying on California's default intestacy laws.

And perhaps the craziest part? Chadwick Boseman had wealth, success, and access to sophisticated advisors—and still died without an estate plan.

If it can happen to Chadwick Boseman, it can happen to anyone.

Estate planning isn't only about how much money you have. It's about CONTROL, PRIVACY, and making things easier for the people you leave behind.

Don't let California write your estate plan for you.

Part 2 of why it’s so important to have separate trust for
blended families.

Blended families require a thoughtful estate planning. Separate trusts can help protect each spouse’s assets while ensuring their children receive the inheritance intended for them.

If something happened to you, who would you trust to care for your children? Naming a guardian gives your family clear direction and allows you to choose someone who shares the values and priorities that matter most to you. Planning today could provide better security for their tomorrow.

You asked for my service… KNOWING THE PRICE… like please just handle your end of the bargain…

09/14/2026

If you have minor children, naming a guardian allows you to clearly state who you would want to care for them if something were to happen to you. Without a plan in place, that decision may ultimately be left to the court. The court decides who keeps your kids, not you.

Choosing a guardian now means creating clarity, reducing uncertainty for your family, and making sure your wishes for your children are known.

May we never forget the courage, sacrifice, and unity shown on that day. We honor their memory today and always.

Your estate plan may be updated, but are your beneficiary designations? Life changes like marriage, divorce, new children, or the loss of a loved one can affect where your assets ultimately go. A quick review can help make sure everything still aligns with your wishes.
