Trusted estate planning and business law for Santa Clarita families and business owners, from a local attorney who has served Southern California since 1997.
Clear guidance without the jargon, so you always know where you stand.
Santa Clarita is a young city built from four communities, Valencia, Newhall, Saugus and Canyon Country, and many of the families here are raising children and building businesses at the same time. The Flaig Law Firm has served Southern California families since 1997, and those are the two things we protect.
Santa Clarita estates fall under Los Angeles County Superior Court, where most estate cases are heard downtown at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse. A living trust keeps your family out of that process entirely.
You work directly with Donald W. Flaig, by phone, video or in person at our Westlake Village office. The first consultation is free.
For parents of young children, the most important line in an estate plan is the one naming a guardian. Without it, a court decides who raises your children. We make sure that decision stays yours.
We keep plans simple to update, because a Santa Clarita family’s next ten years usually look very different from the last ten.
Santa Clarita estates fall under Los Angeles County Superior Court. Most estate cases are heard downtown at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse, a long way from Valencia or Canyon Country.
Santa Clarita’s newer neighborhoods are full of young families. Naming guardians and deciding how money is held for children are the first priorities we address.
Many Santa Clarita families also run a business. Choosing the right entity, and keeping personal assets separate from it, protects the household if the business has a hard year.
