Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in California?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney for finances, an advance health care directive, and a living trust. California recognizes these documents under the Probate Code and Health and Safety Code. These documents work together to manage your affairs if you become incapacitated and to distribute your assets after death.
How long does probate take in Orange County California?
Probate in Orange County typically takes 9 to 18 months from start to finish. California law requires a minimum 4-month creditor claim period and court hearings for asset distribution. Complex estates or disputes can extend the timeline significantly.
