Wills and Trusts
In California if you do not proactively plan for the transfer and management of your assets upon your death, the courts will look to the California statutes to make decisions on your behalf. Not only will the state be making the decisions on your behalf, but the attorneys fees for the administration will likely be taken from your estate, thus leaving less for your loved ones. This can easily be avoided by setting up a comprehensive estate plan while you are alive and well. A few of the estate planning documents help clients draft are:
- revocable living trusts;
- wills;
- financial power of attorneys;
- health care power of attorneys;
- guardian provisions;
- HIPPA authorizations;
- living wills;
- ILIT’s
- and memorial instructions
At Odgers Law Group, we help individuals and families transfer their assets when they want, to whom they want, in the way they want, while avoiding any unnecessary taxes, legal fees, and family turmoil.
