This is such a great video and thank you for putting this information out. I needed this.
Thank you for this information
Yes
How do you know you found the right lawyer with the basic estate planning protections? It seems they all lean towards a trust & the boogie man probate is the driver.
Look for an Estate Planning Attorney who is also a Certified Specialist.
@@CunninghamLegal Our testamentary trust is fine for now.
I called for 15 minute free consultation and was told that I cannot speak with a lawyer so any questions that I asked could not be answered.. I was told I need to make a 60 to 90 minute appointment consultation to speak with an attorney and it would cost me $595. Couldn’t even tell me a ballpark figure of how much it would cost to put one property in a revocable trust for my child I need to have a 90 minute consultation to find out the cost to do this and pay $595
Please see our recent video where we give a more updated fee breakdown: th-cam.com/video/Q5m1ynLXCrY/w-d-xo.html

Even tho California has no asset limit for medi-Cal Beneficiaries, Medi-Cal requires you report 100% of your inheritance within 10 days. How can you do this within 10 days when it takes months?
Covered California, on the other hand, says you don’t have to report when you receive and inheritance, but have to report when you sell an asset. Why the discrepancy?
There are different types of Medi-Cal and the rules are complex and often don’t make sense. www.canhr.com is an excellent resource.
If you have an IRA but you don’t have but $20,000 in it is it best to sell it and put it in your regular savings account to keep from having to go through that IRA stuff or forms etc.
If you don’t plan properly, a whopping 90.3% of your IRA can go to taxes when you pass it on to your loved ones! Here is a link to an article that explains an estate planning strategy to protect your IRA: www.cunninghamlegal.com/ira-legacy-trusts/ For a consult with one of our attorneys please visit: www.cunninghamlegal.com/california-law-offices/contact/ or give us a call at 866.988.3956
I think it is the complete opposite :). IRA and other retirement accounts by nature have beneficiaries already declared, and so they will never need to go through probate = distributions will happen directly to the beneficiaries. Bank accounts, however, don't always are the POD (payable-on-death) type where beneficiaries can be declared. In this case these bank accounts will end up going through probate if not listed as trust assets.
@@spikermike2843 Thank you the first post don’t like take the ira money would cause taxes and put in bank savings loose intrest on what a ira presently getting .
My parents owned the property originally. They divorced. Daughter purchased the property at 550,000. The father then put the property back into his name, but did not release the title back before prop 19.
If the daughter takes it back, will the assessment go back to the original $60,000 purchase or from her purchase at 550,000? This property is in LA County.
If it is the family home (or farm) it may qualify in full or in part for the family home reassessment exclusion under Prop 19. Please check out our recent video on Prop 19: th-cam.com/video/gPZQonQM8rI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fapeWeAYGKylFBsw or contact our office.
Yes I have one
would it be wise to add an addition LT? we do have one in place with other property which my bro and sis will take...my dad is wanting to give me the property now but taxes will kill me... I am looking to put assets to work.. should I draw up a new trust on just the property he is giving me?
You should reach out to us, there may be a way to minimize taxes and provide creditor protection if your father is looking to transfer the property to you. Book a free 15 min call with one of our client specialists here: www.cunninghamlegal.com/book-your-appointment/
