The Law Office of Matthew W. Harris provides tailored estate planning for Del Mar homeowners with complex property titles, view-right considerations, and vacation-home succession. We draft trusts addressing Proposition 13 implications, transfer-on-death deeds, and community property agreements, and coordinate with Marin County Recorder and Assessor workflows to reduce delays.
Climate considerations include wildfire exposure from open space, sea-level and storm impacts along the bay, and power shutoffs. We incorporate emergency guardianship clauses, digital document vaults, wildfire-proof notarization plans, and insurance-aligned trust language. Our practices follow Tiburon Municipal Code, Marin County probate procedures, and California statutory requirements.
We also serve nearby neighborhoods: Lyford’s Cove, Bel Aire, and Old Tiburon, providing mobile signings, cross-jurisdiction beneficiary planning, and coordination with local financial advisors. Eco-friendly practices include e-sign when permitted, recycled-paper printing, and support for Richardson Bay and local conservation events.
