For estate planning and small-business counsel in Carlsbad's Aviara corridor, the Law Office of Lana Black on Palomar Airport Road (State Bar #302827) provides trust and probate services informed by a background spanning enrolled-agent tax practice, medical technology entrepreneurship, and real estate brokerage operations. The firm drafts trust instruments including pour-over wills, durable powers of attorney, and advance healthcare directives, all requiring notarized execution coordinated through Notary Erika for in-office and mobile signings across the Aviara and La Costa areas. Small-business owners receive entity formation guidance, buy-sell agreement structuring, and succession planning built on California Corporations Code provisions governing LLC operating agreements and shareholder arrangements. Tax planning for trust assets and small-business entities at the firm runs in parallel with the bookkeeping and compliance work at CapForge Bookkeeping, Tax & More, which handles small-business tax filings along the same Palomar Airport Road commercial corridor near the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. The firm's most complex estate-planning engagements layer charitable remainder trusts with grantor-retained annuity trust structures, sequencing IRS-mandated 7520 rate calculations against beneficiary payout schedules that span multiple tax years.
