NEW BLOG POST ALERT!

You’ve worked hard to build savings, invest in your home, and create a future for your children. But under California law, if you leave assets directly to a minor through a will, they’ll typically receive the entire inheritance at age 18.

That’s a lot of money—potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars—landing in the hands of someone who just graduated high school.

Staggered inheritance ensures your children get the right amount of money at the right time in their lives.

While you’re labeling backpacks, let’s label guardians too.

Why now?
Back-to-school = organization mode
You’re already updating forms
Perfect time to check your legal plan

Without a plan in California:
Court decides who cares for your kids
Could be someone you wouldn’t choose

What you need:
✔ Will or pour-over will with guardianship provisions
✔ Temporary guardian nomination
✔ Emergency cards

Mistakes to avoid:
Only naming guardians verbally
Not updating after big life changes
Thinking godparents = legal guardians

You’ve got the lunchboxes ready.
Now let’s protect your kids, no matter what.
