Finally, an Estate Planning Guide for Californians

how community property rules affect inheritance and taxes
minimizing capital gains on high-value real estate
legal and tax rules that apply to non-citizens and U.S. permanent residents
choosing a guardian for your minor children
understanding California's rules for property tax reassessments and inheriting a low property tax rate, and
avoiding California's slow and expensive probate system through options such as transfer-on-death deeds.
