California State Bar #145569, in practice since 1993, R Dawn Stahl runs her solo estate-planning office from 3588 Fourth Ave Suite 200 in Hillcrest, 92103, drafting revocable trusts, wills, powers of attorney, and advance health care directives on fixed-scope engagements. Trust funding is where most estate plans fail, and intake at this office routinely loops in the client's existing financial advisor — 20/20 Financial Advisers of San Diego, LLC has re-titled brokerage and IRA beneficiary designations concurrent with trust signings out of the Fourth Ave suite. The practice is a longstanding San Diego Equality Business Association member and regularly drafts plans addressing same-sex couple estate issues, domestic-partnership transitions to marriage, and non-biological-parent guardianships. Irrevocable life-insurance trusts for estates approaching the federal exemption require an underwriting step upstream of the drafting, and All Risk Life Insurance Agency has placed the policies on several ILITs this office has produced so the trust owns coverage from inception. The most complex files combine blended-family A/B trusts, generation-skipping transfer planning, out-of-state real-property integration, and post-death trust administration through San Diego Probate Court.
