Our San Diego Estate Planning and Trust Administration Attorneys Focus on Your Needs

Who needs an estate plan? Chances are good you do.

If you have minor children, you should have an estate plan. If you want to determine who will inherit your assets, you need an estate plan. If you are worried about becoming unable to make or communicate important decisions as you age, estate planning is right for you. If you want to leave a legacy through charitable giving, an estate planning lawyer can help with that, too.

At the law firm of Frisella Neilson, APC, in San Diego, we want to assist you in passing on your legacy through thoughtful, values-based planning. We are acutely aware of the reasons most people tend to wait for an emergency to settle their affairs. Our experienced estate planning attorneys are dedicated to taking the complexities and uncertainties out of the life-planning equation so that our clients can have peace of mind.

In trust litigation matters, we represent clients who have been treated unfairly. If you believe you are on the “right side” of your litigated dispute, we invite you to tell us your story and learn about your options.

Whether you’re coming into our office because you need to create an estate plan to secure your future, or you have a trust administration issue that needs our litigation skills, we are there to help you.

Our Estate Planning Lawyers Can Provide Everything You Need

Our attorneys can help you to appoint a friend, relative or professional to make important financial decisions for you through a durable power of attorney if you are no longer able to make those decisions.

Our attorneys can help you draft a document that specifies your preferences related to medical care if you are incapacitated or specify end-of-life preferences if you are near death. For instance, if you do not want extraordinary measures to be taken if you become terminally ill, you can specify this in an advance health care directive, sometimes referred to as a “living will.” Further, we can draft durable health care powers of attorney according to your wishes so you can appoint a trusted person to make your health care decisions.

Wills are valuable tools that allow you to control how your assets will be distributed after your death. Our attorneys can both draft wills and represent the executor in probate actions.

Created during your lifetime, a trust is a versatile legal document that can be used for purposes after your death, ranging from direct distribution of your assets to your beneficiaries, educational support of a child, or providing care to a disabled parent or child. It can also be used during your life, for your care if you are incapacitated to the degree that you can no longer manage your finances. Our attorneys can assist you in establishing an irrevocable or revocable trust that meets your personal needs. A trust can help your estate avoid probate, reduce estate taxes, and resolve issues related to the long-term management of your property. Trusts can be used for various purposes, and various types of trusts exist, including life insurance trusts, spendthrift trusts, special needs trusts and charitable remainder trusts, for example, each of which can be drafted to meet your specific needs.

Asset protection strategies: In addition to protecting your assets using a wide variety of trusts, we can tailor your estate plan to include other asset protection mechanisms, including limited liability companies (LLCs), when applicable.

We also offer services related to estate administration. For example, our attorneys can assist with the proper administration of the trust.
