Did you know that you don’t actually need Los Angeles living trust lawyers to set up a trust? Laguna Legal has been helping LA and other California residents with legal documents like living trusts, child custody, incorporation, credit repair, immigration, and with mediation for the past 23 years!
Los Angeles, or L.A., is the largest city in California, with over 4 million residents. Los Angeles County has over 10 million residents. The city is best known for the movie business; studios such as Paramount, Warner Brothers, and Universal are located here. The city also is home to several professional sports teams.
Laguna Legal charges $950 to prepare a complete estate plan. A complete estate plan includes the following documents: 1) Revocable Living Trust; 2) Certification of Trust; 3) Pour-Over Will; 4) Durable Springing Power of Attorney; and 5) Healthcare Directive.
The actual living trust does not get registered. However, all of the person’s real estate may have been retitled in the name of the trust which means you may be able to locate the name and date of the trust by searching through property records.
The Los Angeles Superior Court does not get involved with a living trust unless a Heggstad Petition is filed through the probate court because the deceased neglected to property fund their trust after its creation.
