Frequently Asked Questions
What does an estate planning attorney in Madera do?
An estate planning attorney helps you create documents like a will, living trust, and advance health care directive. They ensure your assets transfer according to your wishes and minimize probate under California law. They also advise on tax strategies and guardianship for minor children.
Do I need a living trust in California?
A living trust can help you avoid probate, which in California can be costly and time consuming. For estates over $184,500 in 2024, probate is required unless you use a trust. Many Madera residents choose a trust to keep their affairs private and save their heirs time and money.
How much does probate cost in California?
California probate fees are set by statute and based on the gross estate value. For a $500,000 estate, statutory fees are about $13,000 for the attorney and $13,000 for the executor. These fees can be avoided with proper estate planning such as a revocable living trust.
