- Q. How can I add myself to a deed with my mother in CA after my father's passing?
- A: If your father's name is still on the title, then you need to hire a probate attorney to help you get your father's name removed from the title. The process does depend on exactly how title is held. It could be something as simple as an affidavit filed in the land records, or it might require filing with the local probate court.
After that your name can be added with a deed, but in most instances when I am presented with the same situation I do NOT recommend that for a long list of reasons.

- Q. How can my wife continue our business if I die as a sole proprietor?
- A: As a sole proprietor, all of your business assets are your assets. There is no separate entity. At a minimum you need a will that leaves your business assets (or everything you own, if that is your desire) to your wife when you die. But you should seriously consider creating a revocable living trust instead in order to avoid probate. Probate is crazy expensive and unnecessarily complicated in California. Trust administration is typically orders of magnitude cheaper and easier than probate.
- Q. Do we report home sale on 2024 or 2025 taxes await final probate docs?
- A: If the estate sold the house then the sale is reported on the 2024 estate tax return.
If you and your sister sold the house then the sale is reported on your 2024 income tax return and her 2024 income tax return.
