At the Law Office of Martin T. Yarnell, we focus on estate planning, elder law, special needs planning, business planning, and closely related practice areas. In essence, we help individuals, families, and business owners find answers to difficult questions such as:

How can I be sure that my assets will go to the people I want to receive them when I pass away?

How can I make sure that the people of my choosing will have the ability to make financial and medical decisions for me if I become incapacitated?

If my spouse or I need long-term care, will we lose our life savings?

Am I eligible for Medi-Cal assistance to help pay for nursing home care?

How can I ensure my loved one with special needs receives necessary care after I can no longer provide that care myself?

How can I transition out of my business efficiently and profitably?

Am I eligible for Veterans Aid and Attendance Benefits? If so, can they help me pay for long-term care?

What is probate, and what is required to close an estate that has no Trust?

4worldlovers: Wills, trusts, tax planning, the probate process: It all gets very confusing. Do-it-yourself sites say that estate planning is simple and does not require an attorney. However, do-it-yourself documents are very risky. Estate plans come with legalities and details that are easily missed without legal training. You do not want to make any mistakes on something that affects your entire life’s work.

This is where we come in. We will work together to protect every aspect of your estate with the proper documents. Even though estate plans and administration are not always straightforward on their own, we will make them easy to understand for you.

The most important part of estate planning and probate is that it’s about you and your loved ones. It’s about what you envision for your estate or what your loved one envisioned for theirs.

Our practice has always been founded in my clients’ desires. When we meet about estate planning, we will take time to discuss your wishes for future care, how to distribute your estate and what you value most so we can make an estate plan that is custom-fit for you.

If a loved one has passed away and you are seeking guidance through the probate process, we will always be respectful of the emotional side of your situation. We will help you carry out your loved one’s wishes and resolve any issues that could come up so you can move forward peacefully.
