Frequently Asked Questions
What documents does an estate plan typically include in California?
A basic estate plan in California usually includes a will, a durable power of attorney, an advance health care directive, and sometimes a revocable living trust. The California Probate Code governs the execution of these documents. Each document serves a different purpose for managing assets and health care decisions.
How does California law affect estate planning for married couples?
California is a community property state, which means assets acquired during marriage are generally owned equally by both spouses. This affects how trusts and wills are structured. An estate planning attorney can help couples understand how community property rules apply to their specific situation.
What is the probate process in California and can it be avoided?
Probate is the court-supervised process of administering a deceased persons estate. In California, estates valued over $184,500 must go through formal probate unless assets are held in a trust. A properly funded living trust can help avoid probate and save time and money for your heirs.
