Los Angeles Estate Planning Attorney

Serving Clients in Marina del Rey, Venice & the Surrounding Areas

Estate planning is important for everyone. A sound estate plan not only ensures that your assets are protected, but it also allows you the ability to care for your own future and the future of your loved ones. A well-drafted estate plan comprises four key aspects: a revocable living trust, powers of attorney for property management, an advance health care directive and HIPAA release authority, and a pour-over will.

At the Law Offices of Maria N. Jonsson, we can assist you in drafting your estate plan or modifying or updating an existing plan. Our Los Angeles-based estate planning attorney, Maria Jonsson, has over 15 years of legal experience. She uses this experience and her ability to effectively navigate different family dynamics to assist her clients with all aspects of pre-death planning and post-death administration. If you need assistance with estate planning, probate, or trust administration, we encourage you to reach out to our legal team today.

Call (310) 935-0706 or submit an online contact form to schedule your initial consultation today.

The Importance of Updating Your Estate Plan

Under new 2018 tax cuts, estate planning laws are changing. It is important that you review your existing estate plan to ensure that it is up to date and that you are receiving the full benefits of these new rules. Depending on your particular situation, it may be prudent for you to revise your current credit shelter trusts in order to take advantage of the new estate tax exemptions.

Our firm can help you review or amend a trust or any aspect of your estate plan. Our goal is to help our clients take the necessary steps to avoid probate and ensure that their wishes are carried out after they are gone. If you are already facing probate or need assistance with trust administration, either as a trustee or beneficiary, we can assist you with this as well. Our Los Angeles estate planning and probate lawyer offers compassionate, personalized legal counsel tailored to your unique needs. Don’t pay the high price of regret; contact the Law Offices of Maria N. Jonsson today.
