Find Businesses & Organizations in Walnut Creek, CA

Are you looking for an estate planning & trust attorney in San Francisco (Bay Area), Walnut Creek (East Bay), El Dorado Hills (Greater Sacramento) or other parts of Northern California? If your answer to the above question is affirmative, then you've come to the right place. Andrei Jingan is a California-licensed estate planning and trust attorney, with offices in San Francisco, Walnut Creek and El Dorado Hills serving clients throughout Northern California in the areas of Estate Planning (e.g. Living Trusts, Wills, Legacy Planning, Family Planning, Business Succession Planning, Business Law, Contracts, etc.) While most people think that they need just a will for estate planning purposes, very few realize that a will needs to be probated in California, and mandatory probate fees start at approximately $6000 up to hundreds of thousands depending on the total value of the deceased’s assets at the time of death. That being said, if a will is chosen as an estate planning tool, then to avoid probate, such will needs to be a pour-over will in addition to a living trust or needs to create a trust through its provisions instructing the will’s executor to transfer all estate assets to the trust. By working with a trust attorney, you can create a trust focused on minimization of taxes, protection of assets, delayed distributions to the intended beneficiaries (aka heirs) and planning for your incapacity. Regardless of your planning goals, you should begin working on your estate plan early in advance while you can still make any sound decision, and any delayed planning might result in the impossibility of such planning due to a sudden critical medical condition or even death. A trust attorney can help you tailor the distribution of the estate property and money taking into account special circumstances such as a minor beneficiary or an adult beneficiary who is not very financially responsible. The trustees named in the trust will carry out your preferences as directed in the trust document. This is a helpful option to someone who needs to leave assets to an heir whom the trustmaker is concerned could blow the money or desires the funds to be directed for special needs or last for a longer time. Trusts are not only for the wealthy, and in fact most Californians should at least consider having a trust. Specifically, a probate process can drag on for years and become public which is extremely concerning when you plan on keeping your family affairs private. A trust often saves the beneficiaries from unwanted scrutiny or creditor claims. An estate plan is a lot more than just a list of your assets and who gets them when you die. Even if your wishes are relatively straightforward – “I want everything to go to my kids” – making sure those wishes will be legally effective can sometimes be more complicated than you might think. That’s where our trust attorney, Andrei Jingan, will come at rescue ensuring that a tailored legal estate plan is created for your peace of mind. If you need a reliable estate planning trust attorney in San Francisco (Bay Area), Walnut Creek, El Dorado Hills, CA, or anywhere in Northern California, call us today for a free evaluation.

As a little peculiar kid who grew up in Stockton, CA, I had an imagination that was too big for my little brain. As long as I can remember, I fantasized about being loved and accepted. The first time I tried to make friends with kids around my neighborhood, I was told to go "back to my country." Born here in California, I didn't know what they meant until the fights in the neighborhood became violent. The hatred you face from childhood to adulthood is dangerous and damaging. I hope one day we can change this for all of us. Why can't we learn to love and accept one another for our differences and our similarities? That is the journey or quest I am on and the reason behind the "Michelle Meow Show."
