Trusted estate planning and business law for Camarillo families and business owners, from a local attorney who has served Ventura County since 1997.
Clear guidance without the jargon, so you always know where you stand.
Camarillo sits between the Conejo Grade and the Oxnard Plain, and its families range from retirees in Leisure Village to owners of farms and businesses that have been in the family for generations. The Flaig Law Firm has served Ventura County since 1997, and the plans we write for Camarillo reflect that range.
Camarillo estates are settled through Ventura County Superior Court. A properly funded living trust keeps your family out of court, and a well-built business structure keeps a family enterprise running when ownership changes hands.
Donald W. Flaig handles every matter personally, and Camarillo is a short drive down the Conejo Grade from our office. Your first consultation is free.
For many Camarillo clients the harder question is not who inherits, but who can act if they cannot. A durable power of attorney and an advance health care directive, signed while everyone is well, spare a family a court conservatorship later.
We explain each document in plain English and make sure your plan is funded, so it works the day it is needed rather than only on paper.
Camarillo estates without a trust go through Ventura County Superior Court at the Hall of Justice in Ventura.
In Leisure Village and other retirement communities, incapacity planning matters as much as inheritance: who pays the bills and speaks to doctors if you cannot. Those documents are part of every plan.
Land and businesses that have stayed in a family for generations need a succession plan, not only a will. We plan the handoff so the next generation inherits a working enterprise.
“My wife and I had an exceptionally positive experience updating our trust, including all the interacting elements such as our will, and health care instructions. We spoke to Donnie over the phone whenever we had a question. He helped us with it all and the process was very smooth.”
