Law Office of Matthew W. Harris provides estate planning tailored to waterfront property, docks, and multi-jurisdictional assets. We draft trusts addressing boats registered with DMV/USCG, community-property titling, Proposition 13 considerations, and Marin County Recorder requirements. We coordinate with HOAs and lenders common to Paradise Cay transactions.
Climate considerations include sea-level rise, king tides, FEMA flood maps, and wildfire smoke contingencies; we integrate insurance reviews, trust funding for mitigation upgrades, and emergency guardianship directives. We comply with Marin County probate rules, California notary law, and Tiburon permitting references when property transfers require preliminary change-of-ownership filings.
Nearby neighborhoods we serve: Belvedere Island, Strawberry, and Corte Madera—handling inter-county moves, 1031-related trust addenda, and beneficiary planning across multiple homes. Our office uses recycled paper, secure e-signatures, and remote meetings, supporting local shoreline and bay stewardship groups.
