Estate Planning, Probate, and Trust Administration in One Place

Estate Planning for Westlake Village Residents

For Westlake Village residents who want clear, practical estate planning, we create tailored plans with revocable living trusts, wills, powers of attorney, and advance healthcare directives. We focus on helping you avoid unnecessary court involvement where possible and protect the people who matter most.

Trust Administration After a Death

If you’re a successor trustee administering a loved one’s trust, we guide you through notices, asset gathering, debts, taxes, and distributions. Many of our trust administration clients live right here in Westlake Village and appreciate having a local attorney they can sit down with when questions arise.

Probate Cases Filed in Ventura and LA County

When probate is required, we handle filings and hearings in Ventura County Superior Court and Los Angeles County courts. As your Westlake Village probate attorney, we manage the California probate process so you don’t have to drive into courthouse traffic without support.

Supporting the Wider Conejo Valley

From homes near The Promenade and Village Glen to neighborhoods stretching toward Thousand Oaks and Agoura Hills, we help Conejo Valley estate planning clients coordinate real estate, investments, and family needs in one cohesive plan.

Local Roots, Long-Term Relationships

For more than four decades, our firm has focused on serving Westlake Village and Conejo Valley families with a long-term mindset. Many clients first came to us for their estate planning and later returned when it was time for trust administration or probate for a parent or spouse. That continuity means:



  • We are familiar with local properties, lenders, and financial advisors.

  • We know Ventura and LA County court procedures and expectations.

  • We understand how Westlake Village families tend to structure their plans for children, aging parents, and multigenerational households.

When you work with a Westlake Village trust lawyer who has watched the community grow and change, you benefit from both legal depth and local perspective.

    Our office is on Hampshire Road in Westlake Village, just off the 101 freeway and a short drive from The Promenade at Westlake. Parking is convenient and close to the building, so you don’t have to worry about long walks or confusing garages.

  • Do you offer remote or virtual meetings?

    Yes. While many Westlake Village clients like to meet in person, we also offer phone and video meetings for your convenience. You can often handle document reviews and follow-up questions remotely, and we’ll coordinate signing appointments in a way that fits your schedule.

  • Do you handle both Ventura and LA County matters from Westlake Village?

    We regularly handle estate planning, trust administration, and probate cases that involve property or court matters in both Ventura County and Los Angeles County. Many Westlake Village residents have connections to both counties, and we are comfortable navigating each system.

  • How quickly can I usually meet with an attorney?

    In most cases, we can schedule a 15-minute introductory call within a relatively short timeframe, followed by a more in-depth meeting if it makes sense to move forward. During the call, you’ll get clarity on whether your situation involves estate planning, probate, or trust administration and what the next best step is.

  • Can you work with other local professionals I already use?

    Yes. We often coordinate with Westlake-based financial advisors, CPAs, and insurance professionals to make sure your estate planning and post-death administration are aligned with your broader financial picture. With your permission, we collaborate so you’re not left relaying complex information back and forth.
