Do I Need a Trust if I Just Own a Home?

Liran Aliav, July 31, 2020

If you own a home in California and it is worth at least $150,000, then you need to make sure to have a Living Trust. It does not matter if this is your only piece of property or if you have only moderate funds in your bank account. If your home is worth over $150,000 then it can go through probate after you pass if it is not included in your trust. A lot of people assume a trust is only necessary if you are extremely wealthy or own multiple pieces of property. But, when you think about estate planning,.

Liran Aliav, July 27, 2020

Being in charge of a trust can be a little overwhelming at first but, with the right counsel, you will be able to understand your role and become familiar with what you are able to do and not able to do. One major concern is the issue of property and whether or not you are able to sell a house in a trust. Well, the answer is yes, as long as you are the trustee of that trust.  What is the Difference Between a Trustee and a Beneficiary? When a trust is created, there are several roles to be considered..

Can I Undo Recorded Deeds?

Liran Aliav, July 24, 2020

Deeds are usually set once they are recorded, but there is an exception to every rule. Sometimes, people participate in backyard estate planning, which is just a fancy term to describe any time someone puts his kid’s name on the title to a property with the intention of passing that property onto the child. When you consider the fact that most people in this stage are now elderly, you also recognize their houses were much cheaper when they bought them in their early years. This generation typically stayed in the same job for their entire career and also raised their.

Do Only Rich People Need Trusts?

Liran Aliav, July 22, 2020

We’re talking about whether only rich people need trusts. This is a common conception, it’s a misconception out there that rich people are the only people that need trusts, and it’s absolutely incorrect.  The people that need trusts are anybody that have in the aggregate, so total amount of assets, over $150,000. If you have over $150,000, you will go through a process called probate and in order to avoid probate, you must do a trust.  You must sit there and draft a trust and then transfer the assets into the trust. That is the only way, not the only.

4 Most Necessary Legal Documents During COVID-19

Liran Aliav, July 21, 2020

We’re talking today about the most important documents for you to have given the Covid-19 coronavirus situation.  The first document that’s most important is power of attorney. Now there’s two types. There’s financial and there’s healthcare. Now you are going to need both of those documents. The Healthcare Power of Attorney is also called the health care directive or power of attorney for health care decisions. It’s the same thing.  And basically what this does, it prevents the courts from deciding for you who is in charge of your assets and your health care decisions. Most of the time, they.

Probate Sales (of Real Property)- I’ve Heard Those Are Good

Liran Aliav, July 20, 2020

Probate sales of Real Property can be complex. Here is an overview of what they are and an idea of what you can expect. But, keep in mind that there are plenty of specifics that will still need to be looked into with a trusted attorney for your individual situation. When someone petitions for a probate, usually they don’t have a trust or that an asset was not included in the trust. When they then go to probate, the judge will ask whether that person who is in charge can be bondable (qualify for insurance). In other words, can this.

How Long Does a Probate Take in Court?

Liran Aliav, July 17, 2020

When it comes to passing on one’s estate, going through probate is a typical option that you may fall into as a beneficiary (it’s not your fault!). You can either put everything you own in a trust, or it will have to go through probate in order to properly pass on to the next owner. A probate is used to transfer title from your parents or any person to a next-of-kin, an heir, or somebody else. The assets have to go through probate unless they are in a trust. Though this is a common route many people take, there is.

How Do I Avoid the Estate Tax?

Liran Aliav, July 15, 2020

As we’ve described in a previous blog, estate tax is a one-time tax that affects some people upon their deaths. It is based on the total value of your assets. It includes things like bank accounts, real estate, and stocks. This tax is based on whether or not your total net worth is more than about 11.6 million dollars as of 2020. If your sum is less than that amount, then you are not charged an estate tax. If your sum is more than that, you will be taxed a percentage of 40% for any surplus amount that goes over.

What is the Death Tax (Estate Tax)?

Liran Aliav, July 10, 2020

It’s been said that nothing is certain but death and taxes and, for some, this is definitely a harsh truth. The “Death Tax” is a nickname often used to refer to the federal estate tax. This is simply a one-time tax that some people have to pay upon their deaths. It is based on the total value of a person’s assets. It includes things like bank accounts, real estate, and stocks.
