What Do I Need to Send In?

To complete your plan, we will need you to gather the following items:

  1. Any existing will, trust, powers of attorney;
  2. Copies of any deeds to real property;
  3. Copies of property tax bills to any real property and
  4. A $200.00 deposit. Please make checks payable to "Law Offices of John E. Trommald."

If you do not have a copy of your deed, our office can do a title search for you for a nominal fee. If you cannot find any other document listed, our office can almost always complete your estate plan without it.

By law, our office cannot disclose the information that you provide us to anybody.

Send your completed package to:
The Law Offices of John E. Trommald
13912 Seal Beach Blvd.
Seal Beach, CA 90740

We wil contact you to confirm receipt of your documents.
