What We Do
Estate Planning Document Preparation for Individuals and Families
Estate planning is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your loved ones. Having the right documents in place ensures your wishes are honored, your assets are protected, and your family is spared unnecessary confusion and conflict during an already difficult time.
At By The People, we prepare all required estate planning documents for individuals throughout California, accurately and at your specific direction. Whether you need a living trust, a will, a power of attorney, or a deed, we handle the paperwork so you can focus on what matters most.
We are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice. All services are provided at your specific direction, as permitted under California Business and Professions Code sections 6400 to 6415.
Based in Ridgecrest and serving Kern County as our primary service area, we also assist clients remotely throughout Santa Barbara County, San Luis Obispo County, Los Angeles County, Ventura County, and the rest of California.
