The Law Office of Edward B. Batista
Thank you for inquiring! Here's a little bit about me and how I practice law.
Areas of Specialty & Office Locations
I specialize in Estate Litigation, Trusts and Wills, Civil Litigation, Contracts, and Real Estate. With offices located in Nevada City, Davis, and Sacramento, I represent clients along Northern California's Highway 80 corridor, including Nevada County, Placer County, Sacramento, and Yolo Counties.
Commitment to My Clients
I aim to provide the highest-quality representation anywhere. I have the experience, aptitude, skill, and motivation to deliver on that promise. If for some reason I cannot deliver on that promise, I will refer you to someone who can. My top priority is to help you, one way or another. I don't mind giving free consultations to those in need.
Estates
Estate Litigation
Do you have a parent or spouse that has died with controversy surrounding their will, trust, or estate? Such cases are estate litigation matters that I will do my best to help you resolve informally (without court involvement). However, if litigation or trial is inevitable, I will achieve your best case outcome through a comprehensive and smart approach.
Estate Planning
If you need estate planning, including wills and trusts, power of attorney, health care directives, etc., I will take the time to understand your unique circumstances to make sure your plan is right. The absolute key to a proper estate plan is a thoughtful analysis of a client's unique family circumstances. Issues that can pose planning challenges include:
A committed relationship but not married?
Second Marriage?
Children by a prior marriage?
Stepchildren?
Mixed families?
Special needs for you, your spouse, or children?
Civil Union or Life Partnership?
