Wills & Trusts
Your Last Will and Testament is a legal document that outlines how you want your estate and your property to be managed upon your passing. It is one of the most important parts of your estate plan.
In your will, you can address:
- Guardianships for any minor children
- Information about paying debts
- Make charitable contributions
- How your assets and property will be passed onto beneficiaries
- An executor who will be responsible for carrying out your will
A trust is another helpful estate planning tool that we can help you take advantage of. A trust is a way to prevent your estate from going through probate, pass assets onto a beneficiary while protecting it from creditors, preventing minor children from misusing it, and diminishing tax liability. Our estate planning attorneys in Folsom can help you establish and fund a trust.
Advance Health Care Directives
An advance health care directive (AHCD) – sometimes called a medical power of attorney or a living will – is a document that outlines your wishes regarding medical treatment and end-of-life care. An AHCD appoints someone as your “agent” who can make medical decisions on your behalf in the event that you are mentally or physically incapacitated.
Powers of Attorney
A power of attorney is a document that grants someone the power to act on your behalf. Establishing a power of attorney can be beneficial throughout your life and during your end-of-life care.
There are a few different types of powers of attorney, including:
- Limited: This gives someone the power to act for you for one limited purpose – for example, the power to sign a lease on your behalf.
- General: This is a more comprehensive power of attorney that gives someone general powers, such as the right to sign documents, pay bills, and make financial transactions for you.
- Durable: This type of power of attorney can be limited or general in scope, but it remains in effect even if you become incapacitated.
To take advantage of any of these estate planning tools, call the Law Office of Tiffany L. Andrews, P.C. at (916) 794-4576.

“This Office is Great!”
I met with Brenda and Karen and both were very professional and gave excellent customer service. They were clear, concise and answered all of my questions. I came out of that office feeling like I was on the right footing and knew I had a powerful group behind me if I need it. I would recommend everybody!- James -
“Would Recommend to Anyone”
I cannot say enough good things about Tiffany Andrews. I had a previous attorney who completely messed up my case and the work Tiffany was able to do was amazing. She is efficient, honest, understanding, and incredibly intelligent. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a smart, educated, kind attorney who genuinely cares and can get results that you want. Truly impressed and grateful I found her!- Nicole -
“Tiffany Gave Me a Voice!”
I hired Tiffany to help me in a custody dispute with my ex regarding my young son. During the entirety of my previous relationship and even after separation my ex had intimidated me and dominated any decision made regarding my son. He bullied me and used his financial advantage to make me feel that I didn't stand a chance against him when he filed to take majority custody of our son. I went into the custody dispute feeling weak but as a mother, I would go to any length, at any cost to fight for my son. Tiffany and her staff gave me so much confidence and ensured me that they would be my voice and help me fight for my rights as a mother and that is exactly what she did. Tiffany was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and honest. She did her job and she did it well. Tiffany was very aggressive while staying very professional in front of the judge. I walked out of the courtroom feeling empowered and protected. My family cannot ever thank her and her staff enough. I would recommend her to anyone that finds themselves in a family dispute. She will give you the justice you and your family deserve.- Cheyenne -
“Very Knowledgeable Attorney”
I'm the father in the middle of a dependency juvenile hearing. Tiffany Andrews is an upfront, honest and sincere attorney with knowledge in this area that surpasses any other attorney I've consulted with. She was able to educate me and inform me of the different directions my case could go. She gives great advice, something that not all attorneys give, and gives me the facts of what she sees, not sugar coating it. If you're looking for a caring and dedicated family law attorney, I highly recommend Tiffany Andrews.- Vincent -
“Excellent Attorney!”
Tiffany and her office have been Great. I am going through a difficult divorce. So far she has been there for me when I have concerns. In court, she has brought her A+ game. She is very detailed. Tiffany has been able to get full standard on alimony, which is what I wanted. And lawyer fees. For the first time in a long time, I am hopeful of a positive outcome.- Previous Client -
“Superior Customer Service”
- JetI was very lucky to have found Atty Andrews online because she addressed all of my questions and concerns over the phone for 30 mins without coming across as someone who is only interested in me as a client for money. She went above and beyond the phone consultation and normally there's a $150 consultation fee that she waived.
She was very helpful and honest and I felt that she genuinely had my best interest in mind and not her business for profit. She even recommended for me hire an attorney in Texas vs California because it is the most beneficial for my family and the one that makes sense the most. I would have loved to hire Atty Andrews to represent our family, but we will listen to all of her advice and recommendations. Thank you, Atty Andrews!!!

“Hard Working”
Ms. Andrews did a lot of research on issues she was not clear so that she would be able to provide accurate information and advice. She worked diligently on my case, while my ex's attorney was playing "legal games" - by sending letters with false claims to rack up his fees - while pretending to work on the case. Unfortunately my divorce was very complicated; however, in the end, Ms. Andrews managed to win over my ex - so he fired his attorney and we had Mr. Andrews finish the final paperwork for the both of us. In the end, Ms. Andrews saved both me and my ex, additional grief, frustration and money.- Previous Client -
“Amazing Experience!”
Tiffany helped me through a very difficult custody battle, and she was very helpful and informative. She answered all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable. Tiffany truly knows what she is talking about... I would highly recommend her to anyone trying to get through a difficult custody battle, or anything else!- Previous Client
