What areas of law does the Law Office of Michele L McGill focus on?

At the Law Office of Michele L McGill, we focus on estate planning, probate administration, and trust administration. Our expertise covers a wide range of legal services, including drafting revocable Trusts, Wills, Durable powers of Attorney, Advance Healthcare Directives, and handling title transfers and revocable transfer-on-death deeds.

Why is estate planning important for my family's future?

Unfortunately, we know each of us will die, we just don’t know when. The State of California has an estate plan for those who failed to plan called the law of Intestate Succession. It may not be what you want to happen and it will probably require a formal Probate Administration which is both costly and time-consuming. By taking control and making a plan you will avoid Probate Administration and your assets will be distributed in accordance with your wishes. A competent and caring Estate Planning Attorney can also advise you about the most advantageous way to hold title, changes in the law affecting things like the Parent-Child Transfer Exemption, how to avoid Conservatorship, and changes in the federal estate tax threshold. Ignorance of these matters is not bliss and can be costly. Get it done right with a caring estate planning attorney by your side.
