We help Santa Ana families put a clear plan in place for their homes, savings and loved ones. Vinh Doan Law Office, APC prepares living trusts, wills, powers of attorney and health care directives in English and Vietnamese, and meets clients in person or by Zoom.
Estate planning for Santa Ana households and family businesses
Santa Ana is the Orange County seat and home to many multigenerational households and family-owned businesses. When several relatives share a home or hold title together, it is easy to lose track of who owns what and who decides if someone becomes ill. A trust, a will and the right powers of attorney put those answers in writing before a crisis.
What we prepare for Santa Ana families
- A revocable living trust, built around your family and your property
- A pour-over will, so anything left out still ends up in the trust
- A financial power of attorney and an advance health care directive
- Deeds and written instructions to move your home and accounts into the trust
- Trust administration and probate help for your family after a death
Points worth knowing in Santa Ana
- Deeds for Orange County property are recorded with the County Clerk-Recorder in Santa Ana. We prepare the deed that moves your home into your trust.
- If you own a small business, the trust can hold your ownership interest so that a trusted person can keep it running if you cannot.
- Even if you do not own a home, you may still need a financial power of attorney, a health care directive and up-to-date beneficiary designations.

Frequently asked questions
Do you serve clients in Santa Ana?
Yes. We work with Santa Ana families in English and Vietnamese, in person at our Garden Grove office or remotely by Zoom and phone.
Does a trust protect a family business?
A trust can name who takes over your ownership interest and manages it if you die or become incapacitated, without court delay. Whether it fits your business depends on how the business is organized, which we review with you.
What if my family does not own a home?
You may still need a financial power of attorney, a health care directive and a will. Those documents protect you if you cannot make decisions and decide who receives your belongings.
