Finally, an Estate Planning Guide for Californians


Every Californian's Guide to Estate Planning helps you understand the basics of leaving money and property to loved ones and charities, and naming a guardian for children--with a special focus on issues unique to California, like:



  • 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.

About the Author
Hanks, Liza W.: - Liza Hanks is an attorney, writer, and speaker with a passion for making legal concepts clear and accessible to everyone. She doesn't think estate planning is or should be boring. After working with hundreds of families for over 17 years, she knows that at its core, estate planning is about giving to the people and organizations that you love most. When done right, Liza knows that estate planning can be life affirming, positive and even ... interesting.
















She is a certified specialist in Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization and taught Estate Planning and Taxation at Santa Clara University Law School as an adjunct lecturer. She is a graduate of Stanford Law School, a former magazine editor, and the mother of two children (neither of whom has any interest in becoming an attorney). She has been featured in numerous national publications including The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and USA Today. She's also the author of The Trustee's Legal Companion (with Attorney Carol Elias Zolla). Visit Liza's blog and podcast at www.lizahanks.com.
