It’s not about living in fear or trying to scare people thinking worst case scenarios. It’s better to have it and not need than need it and not have it.

“State law, not you, will determine who gets your money and property. If you pass away without a valid will and/or trust, by default, much of your property will go to the individuals (heirs) spelled out in your state’s intestacy law in the proportions determined by the law. In effect, the state makes a will for you if you fail to do so. This may not seem like a major concern until you consider the potential consequences: A major one is that loved ones you want to provide for, including your own children, could be disinherited.”

Click the link in bio to read some examples of several situations in which loved ones could be disinherited if you do not have a will and/or trust naming them as beneficiaries.

We all know and assume one day we need to protect our assets and our families … but did you remember to include your pets?

“Despite the societal trend towards treating and loving our “fur babies” like members of our family, the law takes a completely different approach. Legally, your pets are nothing more than personal property – the same as your car, television, or bed. This means that after you die, the law does not care what happens to your pets anymore that it cares about what happens to your car. Even if you have named a future caretaker or have a will the law does not require your pet’s caretaker to honor his or her promise to you.”

Did you know you can add sentimental/milestone events into your trust?

Something we have in ours is if anything happens to us, there are funds that specifically go to her wedding dress if she decides to get married one day.

Finding ways to be included in these special moments if we can’t be there for them (though we always hope would never be needed) is one special way to continue your legacy.

Do you own your home? New home owner? Read why it’s important to put your home into a living trust.

I’ve been practicing as an estate planning lawyer in California for over 10-years and if there is any advice I most consistently give it is this: if you own real property you need to put it into a living trust. So, you may be wondering how much does it cost to put your house into a trust.

You may be left wondering whether you are being ripped off. Your frustration may lead to serious questions ab...
