Testimonials

"My elderly mother had concerns her family wouldn't listen to her wishes as she continues to age. We were referred to 2 different law offices and we choose Mark Ignacio. He was very patient with my mother. He listened and understood every wish and concern she had. He went above and beyond to assist her with all issues. My mother's happiness and sense of security is my priority and she left his office feeling at peace and I left knowing she made the best choice. I felt she gained a clear understanding as he explained the legal process step by step until we both understood. I would refer him with confidence and without hesitation."

Natasha W.

"After having a child, my wife and I contacted Mark about setting up a living trust and will for our family. Through the process, Mark was beyond thorough and followed through in his communications with us. He encouraged questions and explained everything in laymen's terms. He also brought up situations that we hadn't thought about that could affect our family, and ensured that our living trust and will addressed those potential sticking points which put our minds at ease. He is a man of integrity who wants what's best for his clients. A fantastic professional and an even better person - can't recommend him highly enough! Sending all of my friends and family his way."

"I have known Mr. Ignacio for about a year. He is one of my referral partners. I have been particularly impressed with his estate planning process and how he treats each client as an individual and designs an estate plan to meet their particular needs. He has a remarkable support staff and reviews all documents personally to make sure any conceivable contingency is not overlooked. I am a criminal defense attorney and refer all my clients needing estate administration and planning to him. I can recommend him without reservation. Mark is personable and I am happy I met him. A true professional in every sense of the word."

Richard A.

"Mark gave my husband and I a very thorough consultation about Estate Planning and the importance of creating our Living Trust in order to avoid probate. We felt very comfortable meeting with Mark and hired him that same day! Creating our Living Trust, Pour Over Will, Power of Attorney, and our Advance Healthcare Directives was very professionally prepared for us by The Law Office of Mark Ignacio!"

Geri

"Mark is a fantastic lawyer. We hired him initially for probate concerning our deceased family member's property. He's very helpful and always available to answer our questions and guide us through this process. We also hired him to prepare our family trust. We plan on using his services for all of our estate planning needs. I definitely recommend him to anyone needing estate planning and probate services."

FAQs About Estate Planning in California

Why is estate planning not a one-time transaction?

If change is the one constant in life, it makes sense that these changes can affect your wishes for your estate plan, too. Over time, the assets you might leave to a loved one upon your death and even who you want to inherit your belongings can change. Only by approaching estate planning as a lifelong journey rather than a one-time task can you make sure your documents continue to reflect your most current wishes over a lifetime.
