Trusted estate planning and business law for Simi Valley 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.
Simi Valley families tend to stay. Many of the homes here have been owned for decades, and the plans that protect them were often written a long time ago. Flaig Law Firm has served families across Ventura County since 1997, and Simi Valley clients are among the ones who have said so in public.
Simi Valley estates are administered through Ventura County Superior Court. A funded living trust keeps your family out of that probate process, and a trust that is reviewed every few years keeps doing the job it was written for.
You work directly with Donald W. Flaig, from the first conversation to the last signature. The first consultation is free and there is no obligation.
A trust written twenty years ago was written for a different family, different values and different law. One Simi Valley client came to us because his trust was last updated in 2000; reviewing it is often the most valuable hour a longtime owner can spend.
Whether you are writing a first plan for a young family in Wood Ranch or updating one written decades ago, the work is the same: plain-English guidance, every document explained, and a plan you understand before you sign it.
Simi Valley is in Ventura County, so an estate without a trust is settled through Ventura County Superior Court in Ventura, a long way from home for every hearing.
Many Simi Valley homes have been owned for decades, and so have the trusts. Laws on property tax, retirement accounts and trustee powers have all changed since. A review is quick and often overdue.
Since 2021, a child who inherits a home keeps the parents’ low property tax base only if they move in. For families planning to pass down a Simi Valley home, that changes the math. How Prop 19 works.
