Whether you want to prepare your estate plan before you pass away or your loved one's estate is going through probate to distribute their assets, you will need an attorney at your side that will work closely with you to understand your wants, needs, and goals. I will create a strategy that puts you in the best position possible.
Even though I've been running my firm since 2008, I have worked extensively with clients who need to establish wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, as well as guiding families through the probate process to make sure their loved one's assets and belongings are distributed based on what they would have wanted before they passed.
My desire to help people through the difficult processes of estate planning can provide you with peace of mind. It can be difficult to think about what will happen to your belongings when you pass or deal with a loved one's will after they pass. I will strive to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible for everyone involved.
As your attorney, my goal is to take a collaborative approach to your legal matters. Regardless of whether you're needing guidance on how to plan your estate or representation through the often complex process of probate, I believe that collaboration is a crucial component to helping you achieve success. With almost three decades of experience, I know the laws and strategies that work — but only you know what is best for your unique situation. I’ll work with you to help you create a plan for a more secure future for you and your family.
According to an annual survey conducted by the website Caring.com, the pandemic brought home the message that people need to plan for any contingency in their lives. Nothing is guaranteed, so everyone needs to put in place a plan for the future of their loved ones and for themselves. This is what is known as estate planning.
Many people’s conception of wills and how they are administered derives from TV dramas where someone in a musty room reads the will and gasps arise from those who feel left out or cheated. As much as TV dramas are entertaining, they’re not really what happens when a person dies with or without a will.
I have nearly three decades of experience helping people through their estate planning and probate cases. My office, based in Los Angeles, California, has given numerous people a new sense of security when planning their future.
Though no one wants to think about dying, establishing wills, trusts, and powers of attorney can save you — and your loved ones — time, money, and stress as your estate goes through probate. With an adequate estate plan in place, your loved ones can avoid legal complications and focus on what matters most.
If you're an executor for a loved one's will and need guidance on settling your loved one's estate, I can help you. If your loved one failed to establish an estate plan before they passed, many of those decisions will be put into the hands of the courts, which may not reflect what your loved one would have wanted.
If you live in Los Angeles, California or any of the surrounding communities including Sherman Oaks, Studio City, West Hollywood, and Beverly Hills, call today to schedule a free consultation! I look forward to meeting with you.
