Estate Planning & Probate Services We Offer in Inglewood, CA

California probate and estate planning laws are complex and difficult to navigate, which is why we proudly offer the following legal services to clients in Inglewood, CA:

• Probate: Contact our Inglewood probate lawyers today to discuss which legal tools you need to handle various probate matters. From creditors’ claims against the property of the deceased to making sure property will pass to the rightful heirs, we can help you avoid potentially significant and costly errors.
• Trusts: A trust is an estate planning tool that can be used to manage assets during your lifetime and then distribute them after you pass away. A trustee must be established to manage the trust and administer the property in accordance with your directions. Deciding how to distribute your property after you pass must also be considered.
• Wills: The will is a crucial part of any estate plan because it, along with your trust, outlines your wishes in the event that you pass away. Reach out to our Inglewood wills attorney today so we can discuss what needs to be included in your will to achieve your goals.
• Legal Disputes: We handle a wide range of legal disputes that center around the recently deceased. If you need legal advice regarding violations of a trust or will, or if you want to dispute which member of the family gets control over the estate, then get in touch with our Inglewood legal dispute lawyers so we can advocate on your behalf.
• Estate Planning: With smart estate planning, you can transfer property to your heirs, charities, and other beneficiaries after your death, as well as plan for a major health care crisis with an advance health care directive. Our Inglewood estate planning attorneys are here to help.
• Power of Attorney: A power of attorney is a legal document that grants persons designated by you the authority to act on your behalf. While there are different types of powers of attorney, our Inglewood power of attorney lawyers can help you decide which is right for your situation.
• Conservatorships: A conservatorship can be established for an incapacitated or disabled adult to ensure they receive proper care. Whether you would like to establish or contest a conservatorship, we possess the skills and resources that you need to navigate the road ahead.
