"I met Mendy when he has a brief seminar for estate planning. I had been putting this off for so long I decided to go. And after a short conversation I felt very comfortable with him so I made an appointment. I showed up with almost a small suitcase of documents and said here is everything I have and then stated everything I was hoping for in a trust. He delivered and the experience was very easy, quick and comforting."

What is estate planning?

Estate planning is the process of making legal arrangements to manage and distribute your assets and affairs in the event of your incapacity or death. It involves creating documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives to ensure your wishes are carried out and your loved ones are provided for.

Why is estate planning important in California?
Estate planning is important in California for several reasons. Without proper planning, the distribution of your assets may be subject to probate, which can be time-consuming, expensive, and public. Estate planning allows you to have control over how your assets are distributed and minimize potential tax liabilities.
Do I need an estate plan if I don't have a large estate?
Yes, estate planning is beneficial for everyone, regardless of the size of your estate. Even if you have modest assets, an estate plan can still ensure that your wishes are followed, designate guardians for minor children, establish healthcare preferences, and provide for the management of your affairs if you become incapacitated.
What documents should be included in an estate plan?

An estate plan in California typically includes a will, a revocable living trust, powers of attorney for finances and healthcare, and an advanced healthcare directive. Additionally, depending on your specific circumstances, you may need additional documents such as a special needs trust, a business succession plan, or a charitable giving plan.
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will is a legal document that specifies how your assets should be distributed after your death. It goes through probate, which is a court-supervised process. A trust, on the other hand, allows you to transfer your assets to a separate legal entity during your lifetime. It can help avoid probate, provide for ongoing management of assets, and offer flexibility in distributing assets.
Can I update my estate plan if my circumstances change?
Yes, it is important to regularly review and update your estate plan to reflect any changes in your life, such as marriage, divorce, birth or adoption of children, changes in assets, or changes in your wishes. Regularly consulting with an estate planning attorney ensures that your plan remains current and effective.
Should I consult an attorney for estate planning in California?
Yes, consulting an experienced estate planning attorney in California is highly recommended. Estate planning involves complex legal and financial considerations, and an attorney can provide guidance tailored to your specific situation. They can help ensure that your estate plan is legally sound, minimizes tax implications, and effectively protects your assets and loved ones.
How can I get started with estate planning in California?
To get started with estate planning in California, reach out to a reputable estate planning attorney. They will guide you through the process, explain your options, and help you create a comprehensive plan that meets your goals and objectives. It's never too early to begin planning for your future and the security of your loved ones.
