Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in San Dimas?
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 if desired. California recognizes these documents under state law and they must be signed and witnessed properly.
How does California community property law affect estate planning?
California is a community property state, meaning assets acquired during marriage are owned equally by both spouses. This affects how property is distributed upon death and can impact trust and will provisions. An attorney can explain how to manage separate and community property in your plan.
What is the California probate process and can it be avoided?
Probate is the court-supervised process of validating a will and distributing assets. In California, estates over $184,500 must go through probate, which can take months and cost thousands. A properly funded living trust can help avoid probate for most assets.
