Today is not about the long weekend.

It is about the men and women who gave their lives in service to this country — and the families who carry that loss every day.

We remember them.

In 30 years of practicing estate planning in San Diego, the hardest calls we get aren't from clients.

They're from clients' kids — panicked, calling after mom or dad passed — asking what happens now.

And we have to tell them there was no trust. Which means probate court. Months of waiting. Thousands in legal fees. During the worst time of their lives.

It's avoidable. Every single time. And, that is exactly why we are doing this.

This July, Jeff and Justin Isaac are hosting free Living Trust Seminars across San Diego County.

They'll walk you through everything in plain language — no legal jargon, no pressure. Just simple, clear answers.

If you own a home in San Diego, this is for you.

Be honest. Do you have a living trust in place? Yes / No / Working on it 👇

Forgetting your Netflix password costs you 5 minutes.

Forgetting to plan your estate costs your family years.

When there is no plan in place, your family does not get a reset link. They get probate court. Legal fees. A public process. And a wait that can stretch months or longer while they try to access what you left behind.

Justin Isaac has spent over 25 years watching San Diego families go through this. The ones who planned ahead? Their families had access within days. The ones who didn't? Still waiting.

The fix is simpler than most people think.

Watch this before you put it off another day.

Save this. Send it to someone who keeps saying they'll get to it.

She's back!
Our intern showed up today in an oversized button-up ready to run the place.

Her family has a living trust. She has no idea what that means yet. But one day she will, and everything will already be taken care of.

That is exactly the point.

Most parents think adding a family member to their bank account is the safe move.

Here's why that's wrong.

1. It creates extra liability.
2. And if your trust is meant to be split between multiple people, that account goes to one person. Not divided. Theirs alone.

Which is exactly the family drama you were trying to avoid.

Justin breaks down why this common shortcut backfires, and what to do instead.

Most families don't find out until it's too late.

When a parent moves in, their assets can still count against them for Medi-Cal eligibility.
That affects what care they qualify for and what they get to keep.

A Living Trust, set up before the move, protects what they've built.

The Lawyer in Blue Jeans Group has helped San Diego families navigate this for over 30 years. Jeff and Justin Isaac are estate planning attorneys voted Best of San Diego by both the Union Tribune and San Diego Magazine. They've been featured on K**I News.

The average San Diego home is worth nearly $950,000.

Most of the people who own one don't have a trust.

Without a trust, your home goes through California probate court. That process is public, takes over a year, and costs your family 4 to 7 percent of the estate's value before they see a dollar.

A living trust changes that.

One document.

Done once.

A living trust protects everything you built.

Most people assume their home is automatically protected when they pass away. It isn't.

They had a trust. Their family still lost the money. Here's why.

A living trust is only as strong as the paperwork that surrounds it.

Here's a mistake we see more than people realize:

Someone sets up a living trust. Years pass. Life changes — a divorce, a remarriage, a new grandchild. But the beneficiary designations on their retirement accounts and life insurance policies never get updated.

When they pass away, those assets don't go to their trust. They don't follow the estate plan. They go directly to whoever is named on an old form — sometimes an ex-spouse, sometimes a deceased relative, sometimes nobody at all.

The trust did exactly what it was supposed to do. But the beneficiary form undid it.

This is one of the most common and most preventable estate planning mistakes in California.

Three things to check today:
✅ Your IRA or 401(k) beneficiary designation
✅ Your life insurance policy
✅ Any accounts with a TOD (transfer on death) designation
