Sr. Associate Dave Parnall & Principal David Baer review the California court decision in Roth v. Jelley and the importance of attorneys giving notice to trust beneficiaries.
Married couples often don’t give much thought to the characterization of their property as community or separate.

Separate property is all property owned by the person before the marriage, all property acquired by the person after marriage by gift, bequest or devise, and the rents and profits from the person’s separate property.
