Forgery
Of course, if you are considering entering into probate litigation, then we urge you to contact us for more information.

Personal Injury
In the case of a personal injury claim for the Beneficiary of a (d)(4)(A) Special Needs Trust, before the trust may be funded, Medi-Cal (California’s Medicaid program) must first be reimbursed for those benefits paid prior to the establishment of the Special Needs Trust for medical care necessitated by the wrongful acts that generated the recovery. This “pre-trust lien” may be satisfied only from that portion of the recovery that is specifically allocable to past medical expenses and costs.
Social Security Disability
Should you have a child who will never be able to manage his or her own assets during their lifetime, you can ensure that certain assets in the trust are managed for the childâ€™s benefit. Since your child is probably eligible for public benefits such as Social Security Disability, these benefits may be adversely affected if you leave property to them in a will.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
In fact, as an estate planning attorney in Pasadena, I have helped thousands of people over the course of 18 years plan their futures, preserve their wealth and distribute assets to their loved ones. I like being available to answer questions, solve complex legal issues and to help my client’s find affordable estate planning solutions that provide peace of mind for themselves and their families.
Wills
Trusts
Based on their source of funding, Special Needs Trusts are categorized either as Third-Party Special Needs Trusts or First-Party Special Needs Trusts.
Power of Attorney
A settlor may also authorize another person to have power of attorney over the trust which gives that person the right to make changes to the trust in accord with California law (although if an attorney is provided power of attorney, the trust document itself must reflect this). Finally, where there are multiple settlors contributing property to a trust, each settlor has the right to modify the trust with regard to his or her own contributions.
Probate

Bankruptcy
Tax Law
Similarly, assets in a revocable trust may be considered part of your estate when you die, and thus could be subject to federal and state estate taxes. But assets in an irrevocable trust are not considered part of your estate, and thus would not be subject to the estate tax.That said, careful attention should be given to gift tax issues, which are linked with estate tax matters. Working with an experienced estate planning attorney can lessen your gift tax burden in creating an irrevocable trust.
