A DIY will might save you money today… but one mistake could cost your family far more later.

One of my clients typed up their own will, thinking everything was properly taken care of.

It wasn’t.

That mistake ended up costing $30,000.

The problem with writing your own will isn’t always what you put in it. Sometimes, it’s what you didn’t know needed to be there in the first place.

Watch the video to see what went wrong and why getting your will properly prepared can save your loved ones from an expensive problem later.

It was such an honor to be invited by Managing Director Hector Romo to speak at Modern Woodmen!

I had the opportunity to present to their financial advisors on estate planning, probate, and some of the real-life questions that come up when helping clients and families plan for the future.

I’m passionate about educating others and sharing my knowledge on these topics. I really enjoyed the conversation and all of the thoughtful questions from the group!

Thank you, Hector, and the entire Modern Woodmen team for the invitation and such a warm welcome.

“I wish I could give more than 5 stars.” 🥹⭐️

Wow. What an incredible review to receive.

This client lived out of state and lost a loved one who owned property here in California. Having to navigate a California probate while grieving is hard enough, let alone trying to handle everything from another state.

It was truly our privilege to guide them through the process, keep them informed every step of the way, and take as much off their plate as we could.

We are so grateful for the families who trust JLC Legacy Law during such an important and difficult time. 🤍

When your loved one passes away, what should you do with their mail?

It’s one of those small details families may not think about until letters, bills, statements, and important notices keep showing up.

Knowing what to do with a deceased person’s mail can help you stay organized, avoid missing important information, and make an already overwhelming process a little easier.

It is such an honor to be featured as an Alumna Spotlight by the Cal State Fullerton Women's Leadership Program. 💙

Reading this article made me stop and reflect on how much has changed over the past few years. I didn't start my firm because I felt ready. I started it because I felt called. Looking back, I'm so grateful I took that leap, even when it was scary.

This article reflects not only my story, but also the incredible mentors, clients, family, and friends who have encouraged me, challenged me, and believed in me along the way. I truly would not be where I am today without each of you.

Thank you to the Women's Leadership Program for this incredible recognition and for building a community that continues to support and encourage women leaders. It means so much to me to now give back as a mentor and alumna.

I'm incredibly grateful for this journey and excited for what's ahead. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of it. 🤍

Most probate cases happen for one of two reasons:

❌ No estate plan.

❌ An estate plan was created, but assets were never transferred into the trust.

Creating a trust is important. Funding it is just as important.

Questions about probate, wills, or trusts? We’re happy to help.

Did you know there is NO public database for California trusts?

A lot of families assume that after someone passes away, they can just “look up” the trust somewhere. But trusts are meant to stay private.

That means if nobody knows where the documents are, finding them can become a major problem.

Here are a few ways families sometimes locate a trust:
• The estate planning attorney may have a copy
• The person may have saved electronic copies
• The deed to the house may show the property is owned by a trust
• Family members may have been given copies

One of the saddest situations I see is when someone spent time and money creating an estate plan, but nobody can find it after they pass away.

If you have a trust, make sure the right people know where to locate it.
