Protect Your Pet’s Future Today

At OC Elder Law, we understand that the bond between pets and their owners is special. Owning a pet can be life-changing, which is why so many pet owners decide to include their animals in their estate plan.

Our lawyers have years of experience and are familiar with the law, and we know which legal documents and estate planning tools you need to ensure your pet is cared for when you are no longer around or incapacitated.

What Is a Pet Trust?

A pet trust allows you to leave funds to pay for care expenses for your animal. With a pet trust, you name a person who will be in charge of managing and spending the funds in accordance with your written instructions.

Our legal team at OC Elder Law is here to take the time to discuss the following matters to help you establish the right type of trust for your animal:

• Specifying which animals are covered under the trust
• Naming a person to care for the animal
• Allocating how much money should be used for pet care expenses
• Drafting detailed caretaking instructions
• Enforcing the terms of the trust

Pet Trust Disputes

Disputes among family members and beneficiaries of an estate are common when a person leaves behind funds for a pet.

From challenging the amount necessary for the animal’s care to claiming undue influence regarding the handling of funds, it’s crucial to consult with a skilled trust attorney if you want to leave money for your pet after you pass away.
