ESTATE LAW AND PLANNING, TRUST , ESTATE ADMINISTRATION AND LITIGATION.

With over 50 years of legal experience practicing in Northern and Southern California, The Sterling Law Group is experienced in protecting and recapturing family wealth. Many of our group members have concentrated their practices in the area of estate planning and litigation specifically. All of this expertise is brought to bear on clients' personal concerns as well as their estate planning, tax, and litigation goals. Our top priority is to provide our clients with the personalized service they desire.

Estate Planning:
Family Estate Protection:
Probate and Trust Administration:
Estate Litigation:
Private Fiduciary Services:
Business Succession Planning:
Alternate Dispute Resolution:

Business Formation:

Litigation Representation:

If you are a successful business, you will get sued and you will need to sue another entity at some time in your life. This can be a long term strategy or a short term fix of a problem. IP infringement, or breach of a contract can cripple a company, or it can be a bridge to new opportunities. We help our clients to succeed in business, not just in court.

Probate and Trust Administration:

Our attorneys represent beneficiaries as well as corporate and individual trustees, executors, and other fiduciaries in all aspects of trust administration ranging from initial funding of trusts to representing clients in Probate Court.

Board of Director Services:

While corporate counsel represents the corporation, and not the individual board members, we can represent and provide individual counsel to board members without compromising the corporate counsel's duty of loyalty to the corporation. We can advise when a matter is legally suspect without compromising the board members, or corporate counsel's fiduciary duties.


Family Estate Protection:

Most law firms will draft document and leave the family to fend for themselves against predators after the documents are drafted. At The Sterling Law Group we offer protection from predators that will prey on elderly patriarchs, recently divorced family members, and others who would seek to place themselves between the family, and the family estate. We offer in-depth background services to trustees and beneficiaries to make informed discussion and carefully craft estate plans to ensure that undue influence from predators is minimized.

Estate Litigation:

When disputes arise between fiduciaries, trustees, beneficiaries, or creditors, we counsel beneficiaries, fiduciaries, and creditors through all phases of contested matters in trust and will disputes as well as elder financial abuse. We do this in all Northern and Southern California Courts.

Estate Services:

We can manage your estate and family matters now and after you are gone by assisting in conservatorships, financial management, family wealth protection, and other services as may be required.



Alternate Dispute Resolution:

In addition to representing clients in contested matters, our Trusts and Estates litigators have extensive experience with Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) services, including mediation and arbitration.
