  Medical Malpractice may occur at any time during treatment and some examples include: misdiagnosis, failure to diagnose, medication errors, surgical injuries and errors, birth injuries, anesthesia errors, delay in treatment, failure to treat, and failed procedures. No one plans on being hurt or injured, especially by a doctor, nurse or the health care providers we trust to care for us. No amount of compensation can bring back your health, but it can help pay past and future treatments for the damage that’s been done, as well as for any wage loss incurred because of the injury. It is important to act quickly as there are time limits which could make it difficult to get a successful resolution. We are the medical malpractice attorneys in Fresno with the experience and skill needed to get the results you deserve.

Trusts and Estates

• Estate Planning
  A member of the State Bar of California and the Fresno County Bar Association since 1967, Mr. Fanucchi expertly counsels families on estate planning, wills, trusts and the probate process.
• Wills
  Wills and Estate Planning are legal documents drafted to direct to whom and how your assets are dealt with when you pass away. The will becomes irrevocable at death. No matter how large or small your estate, and no matter how difficult the question, we can guide you through this process to ensure your loved ones can be at ease knowing your wishes are being carried out.
• Trusts
  Trusts, in the most general sense, are legal tools for financial planning that allow a person (the Trustee) to hold another person's (the Trustor's) property for the benefit of someone else (the Beneficiary). There are many different types of trusts (Living Trust, Testamentary Trust, Irrevocable Trust, Revocable Trust, Special Needs Trusts) all of which have their advantages and disadvantages. Some advantages of trusts are: reduction of taxes, avoiding probate, maintaining privacy (a trust is not a public record), in some cases protection against creditors, can act like a will after you are gone, and you can use a trust to control how the Beneficiaries will use their inheritance. In most cases, you can change or even cancel the trust at any time. You can also act as trustee and manage the property for as long as you are able. Also, you have the option to have all the trust property returned to you at any time. Allow us to help you identify and build the right trust for your unique situation.
• Power of Attorney
  Power of attorney is granted to an individual of your choosing to give that individual the legal authority to make decisions for you should you become incapacitated any time in the future. Powers of attorney can be customized for any purpose, and they can be very broad or limited to the specific issues that concern you, including financial, medical, etc.
