Hi. I’m Corina Colan. I became a Personal Family Lawyer because I am passionate about educating people and helping families create happy and secure futures while living richer lives today.
I’m here to provide guidance and support for Lake Arrowhead, California and the mountain communities’ families, business owners, LGBTQ, seniors, and anyone in need of my help, navigate the maze of legal and financial decisions you face.
I focus on Estate Planning, Kids Protection Planning and Estate Administration.
Whether you are married or single, a traditional family or a blended one, starting out or looking back on a life well-lived, I will help you to design a plan that achieves your goals for your loved ones today and for years to come.
I graduated from Western State University School of Law in 2007. I have done a lot of volunteering for legal clinics and pro-bono work for those who could not afford a lawyer. I also worked for the in-house counsel of a large real estate management company in the Los Angeles area, mainly in the real estate and business law fields.
My mission is to educate my community and my clients about the ins and outs of estate planning, why do it, how to do it, what to do, and provide guidance in selecting the right estate plan, a plan that will not only protect my client’s family and business assets, but also their legacy.
I’ve been featured twice in the local paper, The Alpine Mountaineer. I enjoy being active in my community as a member of the Sunrise Rotary Club, member and director of the Lake Arrowhead Chamber of Commerce and also the Lake Arrowhead Government Affairs.
Finally, and most importantly, I am the very proud mother of Iris and Michael.
For the past ten years my husband and I procrastinated about getting our Estate Planning done. We have a blended family and we knew this was an important step to ensure our loved ones would be protected. A few months back I met Corina at a Community event and was very impressed with her presentation. I immediately asked her to help us. We quickly realized Corina’s exceptional skills! She is highly organized, has impeccable follow through on tasks and her assistance on the preparation of our Estate Planning definitely exceeded our expectations!!! There was SO much in terms of potential exposure and risks that we really did not know!!! But she swiftly helped us to complete our trust in just a few months!!
If you are looking for a knowledgeable, honest, no nonsense attorney to help you, look no more!!! We fully recommend Corina without hesitation She is WONDERFUL!!
We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
