Trusts and Estates

• Estate Planning
  Probate and estate administration may feel overwhelming, especially during your time of grief of your loved one, and if you have been named executor. The Law Office of Matthew C. Yu, located in the Los Angeles South Bay, can help make the entire process less painful and easier for you. It is important that you determine whether he/she had a Trust, and if not, whether he/she had a Will.
• Wills
• Trusts
  We work with clients who require a basic will, as well as, clients with larger estates who need Living Trusts, Irrevocable Trusts, Advanced Trusts and Private Foundations to minimize and, in some cases, eliminate Estate and Inheritance Tax. Most clients we have worked with have found that our personal approach is second to none. They understand that not only have they created an Estate Plan, but gained a consultant and resource for life.
• Power of Attorney
  There are documents that an adult with sufficient mental capacity may execute to grant decision-making authority to another individual, such as a Power of Attorney, a Healthcare Directive or Living Will, or a Living Trust, without the need for involvement of the Court. However, when such documents have not been executed, or if such documents are insufficient for the circumstances, and if the individual in question has already lost the capacity necessary to execute such documents, the only alternative is to establish a conservatorship and have the court appoint them to do so.
