Estates and Probate Attorney Helping You Plan in Brentwood, California
Preserving your family’s wealth for future generations Whether you’re planning the parameters of your future medical care or establishing support for loved ones upon your death, H.F. Layton Law Office can help with all aspects of trusts and estates issues, including:
Estate planning Estate tax issues Choosing the appropriate executor Guardianships Health care directive Living trusts Will drafting Securing your legacy You work hard for your family, so knowing that you have planned for their long-term well-being and financial security can bring you comfort. We thoroughly analyze your estate and strategize the best means of transferring your assets, minimizing taxes, establishing guardianship for your children, caring for your pets, supporting personal philanthropic causes and protecting your loved ones.
Draft your health care directive and will A will is essential at every stage of your life. Your health care directive sets the parameters for medical intervention should you become incapacitated. This assures that when you are most vulnerable, your wishes will be honored. Your will provides the opportunity to distribute your property, establish care for your children and otherwise express your wishes upon your death. A will is necessary if you intend to leave property to a person or entity other than a blood relative, such as a domestic partner, a friend or a charity. If you die without a will, the court determines how your property is distributed, who cares for your children and even what happens to your pet – making decisions that might not reflect your desires. H.F. Layton Law Office can draft valid wills that ensure your intentions are honored.
