A young couple anticipating the birth of a child, a professional at the height of her career, a family wondering how to handle the costs of aging, or a retiree hoping to pass on a legacy to his children – all need to invest in a carefully designed, appropriate estate plans. As an experienced estate planning and administration attorney, Amy Koshinski understands what a precious message is conveyed by a carefully drafted will or trust and knowing what we can go wrong, help can avoid problems at the start.

"Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us."

-Richard L. Winwood

The goal of estate planning, incorporating the basic elements of a will, power of attorney, living will, and possibly one or more trusts, is to help people direct how their assets are to be distributed upon death and to ensure that the distribution is as efficient as possible (by limiting tax liability and minimizing the risk of litigation). If you fail to properly plan, California statutes determine how your assets are distributed during probate.  An experienced California estate planning lawyer can help you develop a plan that will provide for smooth administration of your estate.
