A TRUSTED BANKRUPTCY, ESTATE PLANNING, FAMILY LAW AND PROBATE ATTORNEY SERVING FOLSOM AND JACKSON
A Personal Connection
One of the most important aspects of being an attorney is relating to clients. At The Law Offices of Diane Anderson, my core practice areas are ones I have lived through myself. I know what going through various legal processes feels like, but, most importantly, I know the hope and fresh start that exists on the other side. When my mother passed away in an airplane crash while I was young, I was stuck navigating the probate process because she did not have a completed will in place. Later in life, the loss of a business led to my ex-spouse and I filing bankruptcy. Then, I rode the emotional rollercoaster of divorce. After my divorce, I went to law school and started The Law Offices of Diane Anderson to support my children. Now, I am here to help you find comfort in knowing that life goes on, and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
The Freedom
Discussing your financial situation with a stranger can seem intimidating. When you come to me, I try to put you at ease by sharing my own bankruptcy story. Bankruptcy can happen for a variety of unexpected reasons, including health problems, loss of business, divorce and job loss. I am available to answer any and all questions you have and can help determine if Chapter 7, Chapter 13 or Small Business Bankruptcy is right for you.
While reaching the point where filing bankruptcy is inevitable can feel scary, it can stop creditor harassment, erase some of your unsecured debts and allow you to keep most of your property. Ultimately, bankruptcy can be the lifeline you desperately need to start living your life again.
The Law Offices of Diane Anderson is a debt relief agency. The firm helps people file for bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code.
There is a common myth that only people in their latter stages of life need an estate plan. However, as happened with my mother, tragedy can strike at any time. In order to avoid probate and make it clear who should take care of your children or where your assets should go, you can benefit from creating an estate plan, such as a will or trust, earlier in life. Life is dynamic, and your estate plan requires updates when your life changes. I can assist with both the original creation of an estate plan, as well as any amendments you need to make. A comprehensive estate plan leaves no room for confusion and lets loved ones focus on remembrance versus the legality of things.
An Experienced Hand
When a loved one passes away without an estate plan in place, the courts have to figure out how to decide the decedent’s assets. It can be extremely difficult to properly mourn when the need to understand probate is a dark cloud above you. As an attorney well-versed in California probate law, I can confidently handle the legal aspect while still being the caring and trusted hand you need during this challenging time.
From my offices in Jackson and Folsom, I readily assist with California bankruptcy, estate planning, family law and probate matters. I offer reduced fees for all initial consultations and free initial consultations for bankruptcy cases.
