Step 1: Comprehensive Legal Strategy Session

We begin by assessing your legal exposure, whether that’s probate risk, estate planning gaps, or pending litigation. If you already have a trust or legal documents in place, we’ll audit them for vulnerabilities, clarify your position, and align the plan with your family’s goals or pending case.

Step 2: Document Execution & Case Setup

Roughly four weeks later, we meet to finalize trust instruments or, if litigation is involved, formalize case documentation and filings. You’ll receive a clear roadmap, covering asset protection and any necessary civil procedure steps.

Step 3: Implementation & Resolution Review

We confirm that all assets are titled correctly and litigation action items are complete, from settlement terms to post-judgment enforcement steps. No detail is left unresolved. We make sure you walk away secure and informed.

Probate administration is the legal process of managing and distributing an individual’s estate after they pass away. This process includes validating a will (if one exists), identifying assets, settling debts and taxes, and distributing the remaining estate to beneficiaries. Probate can be detailed and time-intensive, often requiring knowledgeable guidance to ensure compliance with California laws and to prevent delays. Los Angeles Probate Attorneys help simplify this process, alleviating the burden on family members during an emotionally challenging time.

Probate litigation arises when disputes occur during the probate process, such as challenges to a will's validity, conflicts among beneficiaries, or concerns about the actions of an executor. These cases can be sensitive and emotionally complex, especially when family members are involved. Los Angeles Probate Attorneys work diligently to protect clients’ rights, help resolve disputes fairly, and ensure the final wishes of the deceased are respected while safeguarding beneficiaries’ interests.

Trust administration involves overseeing and distributing assets within a trust according to its terms, typically after the grantor's passing or in cases of incapacity. Trustees are responsible for preserving assets, managing distributions, paying applicable taxes, and keeping beneficiaries informed, all while following legal and fiduciary standards. Los Angeles Probate Attorneys provide trustees with reliable guidance, making it easier to fulfill these responsibilities and ensuring the trust operates as intended.

Trust litigation occurs when disputes arise related to a trust’s terms or its management. These conflicts may include disagreements over the trustee's actions, disputes about asset distribution, or concerns of mismanagement or undue influence. Los Angeles Probate Attorneys represent both beneficiaries and trustees, working to resolve these issues fairly and in alignment with the trust's original intentions, often helping to preserve family relationships in the process.

Civil litigation refers to lawsuits between private parties involving non-criminal disputes. These cases may involve property rights, personal injuries, business conflicts, or breach of duty claims. Whether you're filing a complaint or defending against one, our firm helps you understand the strengths, risks, and likely outcomes of your case. We guide clients through every phase, from filing to discovery, trial, and enforcement, while keeping strategy, efficiency, and your long-term interests front and center.

Civil Litigation

Avatar
Not every case ends at the trial court. When legal errors affect the outcome, an appeal may be the right next step. Appeals require a focused legal review of the record and persuasive written arguments tailored to California appellate standards. We handle civil appeals involving probate disputes, judgments, or dispositive motions, ensuring that flawed rulings are challenged and that favorable results are upheld when defending on appeal.

Appeals

Disputes over contracts can derail businesses and strain personal relationships. Whether it’s a breach of a written agreement, a dispute over verbal terms, or a payment conflict, we help you enforce your rights or defend against claims. These cases often turn on timing, documentation, and clarity of terms. We help clients navigate the complex procedural steps, from filing the complaint to enforcing judgments under the California Code of Civil Procedure (e.g., CCP § 337 for written contracts).

Contracts & Agreements

Avatar
Mediation offers a private, less adversarial path to resolving disputes. With court backlogs and trial costs rising, this method can save time, money, and stress, especially in probate, trust, or civil litigation matters. We prepare clients thoroughly for mediation, making sure your settlement position is grounded in fact and law. Whether court-ordered or voluntary, our goal is to resolve your matter efficiently while protecting your bottom line and personal peace of mind.

Mediation

Avatar
Most civil cases settle before trial. A strategic settlement can provide closure, cost savings, and predictable outcomes. But settling on the wrong terms, or without proper enforcement language, can trigger future disputes. We draft clear, enforceable agreements and handle the procedural steps required under CCP § 664.6 to ensure court enforcement. If you're nearing settlement or evaluating a proposal, we help you negotiate from a position of strength.

Settlements

Before you file, or respond to, a lawsuit, it's crucial to know where you stand. Our case assessments identify your claims, defenses, legal deadlines, and financial exposure. Whether you're considering litigation or facing an active threat, we deliver clear, candid evaluations that help you decide how to proceed. From business disputes to trust conflicts, we give you the facts and options so you can move forward confidently and strategically.

Case Assessment

When business operations turn into legal conflicts, stakes can rise quickly. Commercial litigation involves breach of contract, partnership disputes, shareholder actions, and fraud allegations. These cases often involve complex financials, aggressive tactics, and expedited timelines. We represent business owners, officers, and stakeholders through every phase, from urgent injunctions to long-term litigation strategies, keeping your business goals and legal protections aligned.

What Our Clients
Are Saying

When our kids were very small my husband and I had basic a will and trust created. Now that we are in our later middle age, with our kids growing and a pandemic raging, we realized it was probably time to review our needs and do an update. Daniel and his wife Miriam (she helps Daniel with some of the admin stuff) we're so amazing. Not only were they extremely professional and knowledgeable but they were also such nice people to deal with.

My wife and I recently worked with Daniel on our estate planning and found him to be a pleasure to work with, knowledgeable and patient. Estate planning is not necessarily a fun experience (!) but Daniel’s high level of professionalism and expertise in this area kept us in good hands throughout. We also really appreciate that we can check in with him periodically to review these plans over time. We highly recommend the professional services of Daniel and his team.

K CD

We engaged Dan to update our will and trust. Our children are now young adults and our assets have changed over the years. Dan thoughtfully guided us through the process and helped illuminate nuances to our estate. Dan is extremely thorough, patient and connected to additional resources if needed. We also very much appreciated the sensitivity to safety during the pandemic - utilizing zoom and an outdoors signing of the final documents. The entire process was swiftly coordinated and finalized. My husband and I highly recommend Dan and team.

Debra Sammon

I cannot express more highly the positive and professional experience my family has had with the Law Office of Daniel Weiner. Mr. Weiner was responsive, thorough, patient, following through on every detail, taking the time to not only answer every question, but also making sure we really understood and were comfortable with the decisions being made. Daniel helped us move forward on finalizing some important family goals and we look forward to having a strong relationship with his office for years to come.
