Practice Areas

Three closely connected corners of California probate law — and the reason clients who come to us for one so often return for another.

San Francisco probate court

Probate Administration

Petitions, creditor notices, asset inventories, accountings, and final distribution — managed end to end, so your family isn’t learning the probate code during the hardest month of its life.

Estate Planning Services

Revocable living trusts, wills, powers of attorney, and health care directives, drafted around how your family and your property are actually structured rather than around a form set.

Scales of justice

Conservatorship Services

Petitions, court investigations, and ongoing reporting for adults who can no longer manage their own care or finances — handled with the discretion the situation deserves.

San Francisco real estate expertise

Bay Area property is usually the largest asset in an estate — and the one most likely to trigger a dispute, a tax problem, or a sale that stalls for a year.

Plan now, protect everything

A trust drafted today costs a fraction of the probate it prevents. We will put that comparison in front of you in plain numbers before you decide anything.

Client Testimonials

“After my mother passed, we discovered her estate hadn’t been set up to avoid probate and we were facing a lengthy court process on top of everything else we were going through. Alavi Probate Law guided our family through the entire process with patience and genuine care. They handled every filing, every creditor issue, and every court appearance — and kept us informed throughout without overwhelming us with legal jargon. When it was all resolved, I immediately hired them to set up proper trusts for my own family so we’d never have to go through that again. In San Francisco, Alavi Probate Law is exactly who you want by your side.”
