Services We Offer In Our Financial Services Office

Estate Planning

Establishing who will receive your assets, manage your business, or make health decisions in the event of your death or incapacitation are the processes involved in estate planning.

No matter your age, you ought to have a will, a durable power of attorney for finances, and a medical directive as part of your California estate plan.

Wills

You have worked so hard for your family. Make sure that they stand to benefit by contacting one of our wills attorneys.

Do you have a close relationship with your stepchildren? Without a will, they will be left out. Make things easier for every family member by having a will representing all your wishes.

Trust

A revocable living trust allows you to put in writing, how you would want your assets managed upon your incapacity or passing and how your assets would be distributed to your beneficiaries.

A trust is generally not filed with the probate court keeping it private.

Kids Safeguard System

The Kids Safeguard System® was developed to surpass the requirements of a standard estate plan for children to ensure the children’s safety at all times and to record your wishes for your young children.

As parents, we can conceive every possible concern you could have. We have a solution for them all.

Probate

Probate is the procedure by which a decedent’s will is verified, any outstanding debts paid, and assets distributed to beneficiaries.

The court determines the legitimate heirs of a decedent and how to distribute their assets. We can help with the process, represent you in disputes, and also help you avoid probate altogether.

Trust Administration

We can offer legal counsel and support to help a trustee successfully execute the tasks required for trust administration.

Our services include gathering, managing, and allocating a decedent’s accounts, assets, and other belongings that are titled in a trust and settling any existing debts.

College Safeguard System

Without the proper legal documents, you might not have access to their medical records or the ability to make crucial decisions. Ensure their protection with the College Safeguard System.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So much great information. It was well worth the time. I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. And I mean anyone, you may think you don't need it but you don't want your wishes held up because you didn't. She explained everything and was so wonderful.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hermance Law delivered a solid product at a fair price.  Jennifer was very patient and understanding with my wife and was excellent with communication and easy to work with.  Everyone at the business was excellent about messaging and very professional.

I only have two constructive criticisms.
#1 I didn't appreciate the car salesman like pressure sale tactics at the initial information session visit. I appreciated the lunch and the information and i had done my research and come with the intention to work with the business and spend money, but the whole "This is the special price if you pay today stuff" feels like pressure sale gimmicks you would get in a street market and doesn't mesh with the way I like to conduct business.

Criticism #2 The business does a ton of outreach to build the business and my hat is off to them for the hard work they put into that outreach, but there are many Spanish speakers in our community who are home owners and have assets worth protecting.  Not having any information sessions in Spanish strikes me as a lost opportunity to grow the business.
