Keep your family out of probate court, plan for incapacity and protect your children.
Practical counsel for founders, family businesses and growing companies across California.
In California, property left only by a will usually goes through probate, a public court process that often takes a year or more. Attorney and executor fees are set by law as a percentage of the estate’s gross value: on a $750,000 home, they can total about $36,000 even with a large mortgage. A properly funded living trust lets your family skip that process entirely, and also covers incapacity and minor children.
Individual: $3,500
Couple: $4,500
