Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Re: can I create a will if I am undocumented?

Of course you can. You should see an attorney to write a will that is in accordance with our laws.

Re: can I create a will if I am undocumented?

Yes, there is no citizenship criteria to draft and properly execute a legal will in California, so long as the property at issue is situated there per se. If you would like prompt, affordable legal assistance in drafting this very important document to protect you and your son, contact us today for a free phone consultation.

Re: can I create a will if I am undocumented?

After researching the Probate Code, we could find no limit to your creating a Will.

You should be aware, however, that a Will may still require a costly Probate if the total value of your assets is over $100,000. If you own a home, this is pretty much assured in today's market.

Our office can prepare you a Will as well as a trust so that you will not have to go through Probate. The limitation on the trust, however, would be that you could not be named as a trustee because of your citizenship.

Please feel free to contact our office to set up a free consultation with Attorney Charles Schofield or Attorney Anthony Grossman.

Please also feel free to learn more about Trusts and Wills on our firm's website at No-Probate.com.
