Elon Musk And The California Exit Tax

Posted by: Heidi West Posted on: September 14, 2023 , , , , , , ,

There are so many things to love about California! Unfortunately, taxes are not one of them.

The sunny state has seen a mass exodus of residents charging to states with lower state taxes, from income to sales to capital gains, and more.

The conversation around California’s taxes is not one without controversy. Public companies and figures like Tesla and Elon Musk moving to Texas express the sentiments of many high-net-worth individuals who appear to have decided what is and isn’t worth it to stay. But what could possibly lead to so many people giving up the joys of living in one of the most sought-after places in the world?

California is home to many wealthy individuals and headquarters to some of the most valuable companies. Many Americans are in favor of proposals to increase California’s income taxes to help fund essential public services and distribute resources to the less fortunate. 

The debate around taxes is a difficult, nuanced, and arguably subjective conversation. The role of taxes is one that is thought of as a mechanism for wealth distribution to promote equity and the well-being of taxes in society. Theoretically, the optimal tax rate will ensure the best outcome for each member of society. There is no shortage of scrutiny on wealth and what percentage of it is taxable. 

Sales tax, income tax, payroll taxes, and others may be imposed on former residents of California for an indefinite period of time based on several factors. The “California Exit Tax ” refers to taxes that former California residents are subjected to. Former residents may be continually subject to a “residency audit” by California’s Franchise Tax Board in determining and collecting income taxes.

California state tax is a deeply layered and intricate area of legal and accounting expertise that Hone Maxwell specializes in. Anyone who has had to pay taxes understands that there are consequences for paying the government less than what you owe.

It can be disheartening to move out of state in an attempt to earn a living or operate a business outside of California’s tax laws, only to be sent notices from the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration and Employment Development Department. Authorities may determine that you to still owe taxes to your former state of residence or operations, even after relocation. 

Tax authorities and auditors must be respected.

It is best to seek guidance from tax attorneys with expertise in the matters of income tax, payroll tax, and sales tax to resolve matters in your best lawful interests in compliance and with due diligence.

The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration has expanded its pool of subjects of audits, which are extensive and complex procedures that may result in taxation adjustments. Furthermore, the tax implications of California can extend beyond the state itself. In fact, California’s tax laws can have international implications.

An attorney or team of legal counsel with expertise in state, federal, and international taxation will help businesses navigate audits and resolve disputes.

How Marriage Contracts Can Help Save A Marriage In Trouble

Posted by: Patrick Donovan Posted on: May 2, 2023 , , ,

While the popular image of divorce consists of the violent and highly destructive dissolution of a relationship, this is often not the case in the real world. Many couples simply drift apart from one another, unable to sustain the love they had for one another and unwilling to stay in a loveless marriage.
A common and much more tragic situation we often run into in the field of mediation is couples who still love one another or at least desperately want to make their marriage work but can’t seem to find common ground. These couples unhappily file for divorce simply because they believe they have no alternative.
Thankfully for these couples, however, an alternative option does exist. Colleen McNamee of McNamee Mediations has developed a last resort system, the marriage contract, that couples can use to divert the relationship’s course away from divorce at the last minute.

With the guidance of a divorce mediation specialist, the couple will identify the root causes of their marital issues that are driving them apart and then negotiate the terms of a written joint contract that address the necessary changes that need to be made. The contract is temporary, which means that once the allotted time runs out the couple will meet back up with the mediator to renegotiate the contract and reevaluate whether or not the divorce filing should be submitted. If the terms of the agreement are broken, the mediator will immediately begin the final filing process for the divorce.
It’s not often that a divorce mediator goes out of their way to prevent, rather than facilitate, a divorce. That is what differentiates McNamee from their peers – the care and attention given to every couple that works with the firm. A quick sample of the firm’s reviews confirms the wide range of advantages it holds over its competitors:

Colleen makes a sad and difficult process easier. She is smart, calming, knowledgeable, and has the ability to make a divorcing couple come together to an agreement, which is a much-better solution than hiring divorce attorneys who have the goal of pinning you against each other so they make more money.
She is worth every penny, as she is amazing at what she does. It’ll be much cheaper than using attorneys or a mediator who isn’t as good and will take longer. We used another mediator at first and it was such a waste of time and money.
Choose her, settle, and move on with your life.” – Mori N., Yelp Review

My ex-husband and I are very pleased with Colleen McNamee helping us resolve and mediate our divorce. Colleen is a true professional yet compassionate with both parties which helps to feel being listened and considered. My ex-husband and I were able to amicably agree to do the going forward as a family raising our seven-year-old thanks to Colleen’s expertise and explaining complicated legalese in simple terms. We highly recommend McNamee Mediations to anyone looking for a professional and compassionate mediation divorce attorney. Thank you! – Kiran N., Yelp Review

Victims Of Accidents Poway Personal Lawyers

Posted by: Patrick Donovan Posted on: March 2, 2023 , , ,

During the recent foul weather, I’ve noticed accidents nearly every day of the week. Big or small, driving past, I always felt a tinge of sympathy, vicarious pain, and occasionally grief for those who experienced a life-altering or ending accident.
While personal injury lawyers get a bad reputation from the press and media, there are very few others who the victims of an accident can go to after getting into an accident. Insurance companies are perversely incentivized to try to shortchange you, and the other drivers on the road often don’t have the means to provide for the kind of care you’ll need.
https://www.pexels.com/photo/firemen-spraying-on-flaming-vehicle-47863/
That’s why we heavily recommend you find a personal injury attorney in the days directly after your accident, big or small. Any number of health issues can result from even a minor crash, and you need a representative of your interests to battle the leviathan of the insurance companies.
Here in San Diego, the firm we always end up coming back to for these unfortunate souls is Poway local team Villasenor Law Offices. Villasenor got their start working in the insurance industry, so they have the inside knowledge that can help guarantee a successful claim on your part.
In addition to their inside knowledge, the team has a rock solid reputation for fair dealing and conscientious attention to detail. Take a look at some of the many sterling reviews clients have left them over the years:

I recently hired Chris for his services, and was very pleased with the outcome. Chris and Vickie were great to work with and always quick to respond to my questions when needed. They made me feel very comfortable and were very helpful in guiding me through my issue every step of the way. I would definitely use them again if needed.

Over the last 10 years, Chris Villasenor has created several contracts for my company that protect me in case a dispute with a client or contractor crops up. He has also reviewed contracts from my potential clients or partners and made recommendations on ways they needed to be revised in order to protect my best interest. Chris was also very helpful and informative when my husband & I were faced with a real estate dispute while purchasing our current home. Chris is trustworthy, professional and a great legal resource in times of need AND he’s become my attorney of choice!

Chris is an excellent attorney… Pragmatic in his approach, but also very personable. I feel I was given wise counsel in negotiating a partnership exit strategy that protected my interests in a fair and measured way. His involvement brought me a sense of confidence. He listened to what I needed, explained my obligations, and suggested a clear path to resolution. I recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.

If you need a San Diego law firm in your corner after experiencing an accident, Villasenor Law Offices is the only way to go. You have to be proactive, as every day you spend laid up after an accident is a day an insurance company is spending building a case against your claim.

California Law Ensures Trust Attorney Essential For Family Protection

Posted by: Patrick Donovan Posted on: November 9, 2022 , , ,

As little as we all like to face the inevitability of death, working with a living trust lawyer is absolutely essential to prevent your family from descending into the inferno of probate cases. Probate is the judicial process in which a will is contested in court, and there is nothing outside of a messy divorce that has the propensity to tear a family apart faster than a drawn-out probate case.
Probate cases typically involve either a current or former beneficiary of a will disputing any provision included in their benefactor’s will. This means that anyone mentioned in the will can dispute anything included within, including what is allocated to other beneficiaries.

Family members who had gotten along well prior to the reading of the will may find themselves feeling slighted or wronged by the allocation of assets. The draw of money is a powerful force, powerful enough to justify destroying the relationship they hold with each other if given the appropriate justification and incentive.
To deny them that justification and incentive, then, is your duty as their benefactor. The best way to do that is by creating an airtight will and trust, and to do that you need the help of an expert team of trust attorneys.
The best of the best here in Orange County is, of course, Burris Law. Burris has been crafting airtight wills and trusts for clients for decades, and they have the testimonials to prove it. Here’s a taste of what their clients have to say about them:

Jumping into the preparation of a family trust is an important effort to protect your family when unexpected things happen. Initially, it can feel a bit overwhelming. Our family just finished working with Ariana and the Burris team to put together our family’s living trust. We could not have had a better experience. They are highly organized, super friendly, and thorough! The lines of communication were open, prompt, and reassuring. Love the office and we have the highest regard & trust with the Burris team. – David S., Google Review

I had a great experience with Jason and Burris Law! I’ve never been in litigation of any kind in my last few years in Real Estate, and had been dreading working closely with an attorney when something inevitably would come up. Raissa and Jason completely changed my expectations on working with attorneys. Not only was Jason able to quickly and effectively get me out of trouble, but was also easy to talk to and helped walk me through the entire ordeal. Jason works with Real Estate professionals that are at the top of the industry, and the fact that they turn to Burris Law says a lot about the work they do. Burris Law is the only firm I’ll go to. I’d HIGHLY recommend. -Charlie Martinez, Google Review

An absolute pleasure to do business with Ariana and her colleagues. We could not have been better served updating our Family Trust. Ariana and her team are truly a Welcoming, Kind and Professional group of people. Thank you for your Help Ariana :) -Delano Melikian, Google Review

Probate is a potentially devastating fight for your family and the last thing you want to worry about as you pass from this world to the next. Burris Law will help you create an unassailable will and trust that will ensure your family is both well taken care of and harmonious after you’re no longer there to provide support.

The Mental Health Impact of Infidelity

Posted by: Heidi West Posted on: August 1, 2022 , , ,

There have been plenty of people who have been blindsided by a breakup or divorce—but no one expects it to happen to them.

The painful truth is that your partner’s seemingly sudden desire to end your relationship was likely not a sudden decision. Their discontent had likely been brewing underneath the surface, and you only became aware of the truth when it could no longer be concealed. When a partner has committed romantic or financial infidelity, only to reveal their deception in the midst of ending your relationship, the separation is all the more painful.

Humans are cognitively wired to seek pleasure and avoid pain. It goes along with our natural tendencies to avoid the uncomfortable truth while distracting ourselves with ignorant bliss. 

It’s hard not to ask “why?” after you have been lied to or cheated on. While a reasonable question, the problem with that question is that the answers may not give you the peace you seek.

People lie and cheat in happy and loving relationships because they may need something or someone else to fulfill their needs. But those needs are often derived from personality traits and childhood trauma and have little to nothing to do with the relationship. People who have low self-esteem are likely to cheat because they crave the validation of secretly having multiple partners.

Infidelity has been shown to have negative mental health consequences, including posttraumatic stress symptoms, depression, and anxiety. A scientific analysis “revealed that attributing causality and responsibility to the cheating partner was associated with greater infidelity-related stress.” The analysis also found that high self-esteem was linked to one’s ability to manage the stress of infidelity. “For those with high self-esteem, the effects of negative appraisals on infidelity-related stress, as well as infidelity-related stress on both depression and anxiety, were dampened.”

The root cause of infidelity’s emotional aftermath is complex, spanning social, cultural, and evolutionary reasons, such as seeing the infidelity as a violation in relationship ideals, feeling a sense of loss in time invested in the relationship, societal norms and sanctions, and evolutionary and reproductive costs (Gordon & Baucom, 1999; Shackelford et al., 2000) — Coping with infidelity: The moderating role of self-esteem, Rosie Shrout, Daniel J. Weigel

It is important to understand the mental health consequences of infidelity. Allow yourself to introspect and feel the betrayal, anger, and grief, but avoid the pitfall of blaming yourself entirely for your partner’s unfaithfulness.

Life does not end when a relationship ends. It may, however, mean the end of your marriage. And while divorce may be painful, the process of legal separation does not have to be, especially when facilitated by an expert Orange County Divorce Mediator. Mediation allows couples to divorce on their own mutual terms, which can often be less complicated, less expensive, and more efficient than what happens in divorce court proceedings.

The Need For Speed

Posted by: Heidi West Posted on: July 12, 2022 , , ,

The funny thing about fashion is how drastically tastes change from season to season in cycles that seem to repeat every decade or so.

From red carpet gowns to casual streetwear, designers pay careful attention to what celebrities and stylists seem to be drawn to, and from there, forecast trends for the upcoming season. The fashion industry has historically divided the year into four seasons, with each major designer or fashion brand launching one collection per season. 

The four seasons of fashion are Spring/Summer, Autumn/Winter, Resort, and Pre-Fall. Spring/Summer lasts from January to June, Autumn/Winter lasts from July to December, and Pre-Fall is right in between. The Resort collection lasts from October to December. 

By the end of the season, what remains on racks and shelves will be reduced for sales to clear out that season’s inventory. Fashion lovers eagerly await end-of-season sales just as much as they await the newest releases for the next season.

“Create your own style… let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others.” ― Anna Wintour

How Biker Shorts Became Fashionable

Fashion companies know that the average consumer wants the essence of high fashion but without the type of extravagance that would drain one’s wallet and garner confused glances from passersby.

Trends generally start on red carpets and runways before making their way into casual wear and office attire. Fashion retailer ZARA became a household name for quickly recreating affordable versions of the current season’s runway looks.

Zara, which has been credited as having the first successful fast fashion business model, has a design-to-retail style of about five weeks and introduces more than 20 different collections a year. — Fast fashion, explained (Vox)

Zara is credited for creating a fashion business model in which profitability relies on speed more than quality or artistry. The goal of production isn’t necessarily longevity or tailoring—it’s to sell as much of what is currently trending the most. The clothes are not necessarily made to last—they’re made to be worn when a certain trend is at its most popular. The workmanship and prices reflect that the garment is meant to be worn for a short duration during which that style is on-trend, only to be easily discarded once the trend has run its course.

Most trends come and go, but some trends eventually become mainstream staples. The biker short seems to look good on everybody, and sustainable versions are offered at affordable prices. A black, cotton pair of biker shorts has proven itself in terms of both form and function.

Unfortunately, the need for speed can hijack what is most important. Biking is now more popular than ever—not just in fashion, but as a means of transportation.

Safety is more important than speed. Unfortunately, fatal motorcycle accidents can happen anywhere, any time. If you or a loved one has been a victim of a motorcycle accident, it is best to consult with an Accident Law Firm to discuss the next steps.

(Special) Trust Issues

Posted by: Patrick Donovan Posted on: April 7, 2022 , , ,

As a parent, the thought of leaving your children behind in your passing is never easy. You wonder if you’ve left them with everything they’ll need to find their own success, avoid any possible catastrophes, and are able to live a happy and fulfilling life.
This goes double for the parents and guardians of people with special needs. It’s easy to spend endless waking nights wondering what will happen to your children after you’re gone, especially if they are incapable of taking care of themselves without assistance.

This is complicated further by the elimination of eligibility for your special needs children to receive government aid due to even modest inheritances after your passing. These small nest eggs may not even be able to last them a year, but they will nonetheless be ineligible for governmental assistance due to income requirements.
That’s where special needs trusts come into play. Special needs trusts act as separate entities that parcel out funds as needed after the guardian passes, so the beneficiary is able to receive the full amount of government assistance they require while being supplemented by income provided by the trust.
Special needs trusts are complicated to set up and come with a number of options that may impact the beneficiary’s future, so it’s highly recommended that you seek out a trusted special needs trust law firm that has had plenty of success in the field.
A southern California local law firm that meets these qualifications is Burris Law. The firm specializes in business and trust law, and its partners have been assisting in the drawing up and execution of trusts for decades. Just take a look at what their clients have been saying about them:

I had a consultation with Jason who was extremely thorough and helpful throughout the entire conversation. We discussed what options my parents and I have for a real estate dispute issue, and everything was explained in a digestible manner that helped us reach a decision for the next steps.
Beyond pleased with Jason, as he is knowledgable, professional, and compassionate. Definitely will be reaching out to this firm in the future and recommend to family and friends.
Also, their staff is incredibly helpful. From the intake coordinator to the paralegals– they make the process very seamless. Communication was always seamless, responsive, and quick.
Thank you all so much. – Sarah O., Yelp Review

You’ll finally be able to sleep soundly knowing that your charge will be able to live a fulfilling and happy life, even if you aren’t around to see it.

When Friends Judge You And Your Relationship

Posted by: Heidi West Posted on: February 14, 2022 , , ,

Whether it was in high school, college, or adulthood, at some point, we have all had that friend who keeps being mistreated by the same person they love over and over again—yet never leaves. Or maybe, we’ve been that friend at one point.

Why We Judge Our Friends

It’s hard not to withhold judgment from a friend who makes questionable life decisions, especially when those decisions involve the people they are romantically involved with. The friendship can feel burdensome, with every conversation seeming to be about their relationship issues. You can’t help but wonder: “If the relationship is so bad, why doesn’t my friend just leave?”

We want the best for our friends; we want them to be loved as deeply by the people they choose to date and love. But it isn’t always up to us for our friends to have the confidence and self-worth they need in order to know that they deserve better than the person they’re struggling with. 

When a friend or family member is in love with someone who treats them poorly, they can be so infatuated that they become immersed in denial. They can’t let go of the relationship because they can’t come to terms with the fact that the love they have poured into their partner will never be fully reciprocated. 

“We accept the love we think we deserve.” ― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Are Your Friends Too Judgmental?

We tell our friends about our lives because we want to connect and bond over shared experiences. We also want advice when we have difficult questions about our own lives and are at a loss for answers.

Two Women Sitting on White Bench

But what happens if our friends give us advice that is shrouded in judgment? 

“I define shame as the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging—something we’ve experienced, done, or failed to do makes us unworthy of connection.” — Brené Brown.

Divorce is no longer the taboo it once was, but some people still experience judgment from their friends and family for choosing to end their marriage. It doesn’t help that the complexities of the divorce process can strain relationships even among those outside of the marriage—friends, relatives, and children can often feel pressured to take sides. 

In Orange County, couples are seeking divorce mediation instead of litigation because it is usually more cost-effective and efficient. While divorce can pull people apart more than it brings people together, Colleen McNamee of McNamee Mediations is a certified divorce mediator who is so effective at facilitating communication between both parties that some of her clients have reconciled! Colleen McNamee is even known as the “divorce whisperer”.  

The goal of a divorce mediator is to help both parties settle on the best mutual outcome. Most importantly, a mediator is a neutral third party who won’t cast judgment and won’t take sides. You can give McNamee Mediations a call today.

Motorcycle Safety & Accident Prevention

Posted by: Heidi West Posted on: November 29, 2021 , , ,

With millions of motorcyclists in the United States, the motorcycle is one of America’s most beloved road vehicles. Read on for some of the most important motorcycle safety tips.

Check The Weather

Before you leave for your motorcycle ride, check the local weather to see if there will be any weather conditions that will make driving hazardous. Rain, ice, and snow will allow for less traction. If you have any doubt about your ability to safely navigate the weather conditions, it is best to stay at home or choose a different form of transportation. 

Wear Your Safety Gear 

A motorcyclist has little protection in the event of an accident. Unlike what you see in your favorite fast-paced action film, motorcycle riding isn’t glamorous. The purpose of motorcycle gear isn’t to look cool—although some gear will indeed look really cool. The purpose of motorcycle gear is to protect you from the weather and road debris and to act as a barrier between your skin and the road. In the event of an accident, gear can be the difference between life and death or debilitating injuries. Always wear a helmet that has been approved by the Department of Transportation and has a face shield. Replace your helmet every three to five years. It is highly recommended to wear your safety gear even on the hottest of days—that said, beware of overheating and dress in layers. 

Check Traffic On All Sides

Accidents are more likely to happen at intersections because of the higher density of people and vehicles at junctures. Always heed caution. Watch the actual cars as carefully as you watch the traffic light; even if you have the green light with right of way, some drivers may not notice you or give you right of way, leading to an accident. When in doubt, place your trust in your own observation. Use your signals and check your mirrors whenever making turns and changing lanes.

Exercise Caution During Difficult Road Conditions

Snow and rain will cause the roads to be wetter, which provides less traction than dry roads. It is best not to ride your motorcycle during snowing or rainy days, but if you must, be sure to wear a helmet with clear visors. If you are unable to navigate the road without a clear view ahead, pull over safely and take a break. Waterproof reflective gear is best to stay dry and visible on the road. Note that snow and rain make the roads less clear for all drivers, making motorcycle drivers especially vulnerable.

Hire A Personal Injury Attorney 

Motorcycle accidents can leave you with life-changing injuries and trauma, including spinal cord injuries, fractures, and paralysis. Victims may be left with lifelong emotional trauma and enormous healthcare expenses. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, hire personal injury lawyers to represent you and fight for the compensation you deserve. Villasenor Law Office is highly experienced in accident cases involving failure to yield, backing, sideswipes, and hit-and-run. If you have been in a motorcycle accident, you can give them a call today.

Getting Down To Business

Posted by: Patrick Donovan Posted on: August 17, 2021 , , ,

Attorneys represent somewhat of an oddity in our economic system. They’re so varied, so wildly inconsistent in quality and expertise, that those of us who manage to find a good one tend to stick with them for life.

The trick is actually finding those quality lawyers. Every street corner and billboard advertises this or that firm as being the best in the city or county, yet a cursory introductory meeting will often lead to disappointment and, even worse, a hefty bill. That’s why we do what we do here – funneling people to quality law offices that don’t cut corners and won’t leave you in the lurch with a hefty bill.

The need for a strong business law attorney is probably the least accounted for aspect of running your own company, so once you actually need one, you may find yourself scrambling looking for adequate representation. Luckily, if you’re a reader of this blog and are in the Orange County area, we have a firm we can recommend without hesitation: Burris Law.

As one of the most well respected Real Estate and Business Law firms in the state, Burris Law has seen their clients through any number of odd and difficult legal battles. Just take a look at some of the testimonials posted by satisfied clients:

I am a little late in writing this review. I would highly recommend Burris Law. I started with an attitude that did absolutely nothing for me. Causing my issue to drag on with further threats of pending troubles. I had a consultation with a second attorney who could not assist me but referred me to Burris Law. After months of worry I meet with Jason and Tim how immediately put me at ease. From day one the Burris team stood by me and believed in me. After much back and forth with opposing counsel, Jason and Tim were able to effect an amazing settlement. It hopefully will end any and all communication with the other party.
Thank you Jason and Tim along with the entire Burris team, for all of your hard work and dedication on my case. I hope I will never need you but is comforting to know if I do your team will be there for me!! – Kurt U., Yelp Review

Ariana helped my parents and I handle my parents’ end of life planning and setting up a revocable trust for their assets. The process was incredibly smooth, quick, and positive. Ariana and her staff are extremely helpful and responsive, and more than happy to answer any questions that may arise when you inevitably get overwhelmed with the amount of information that you need to understand. Ariana made it clear that we are her clients FOR LIFE.

On top of that, they run their business responsibly during COVID, with all initial meetings being handled remotely and only the signing occuring in person. We were given a timeslot and showed up in masks and were in and out quickly. Amazing experience with a lovely business. Would definitely recommend Burris Law to anyone looking for someone to manage their estate planning. THANKS ARIANA! – Rakesh J., Yelp Review
