The roots of Korn Law Group date back to 1997 when our founder, Kathryn Korn, opened the doors of the Law Offices of Kathryn S. Korn. While the practice initially focused only on estate planning, it quickly grew as Kathryn expanded her professional network and became familiar with other areas of elder law.
After nearly 15 years of practice in an office just outside of Orinda Theatre Square, the Law Offices of Kathryn S. Korn relocated to our current office on the northern side of Orinda. In addition, with the new move came a new name: today we are proud to call ourselves Korn Law Group! From 1997 to 2016, Korn Law Group expanded from one attorney to a team of 5 attorneys, each having developed unique strengths within our areas of practice.

Services
Our litigation team handles matters relating to estate, trust, or conservatorship disputes. Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable. Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals. The information offered on this website is for general reference only and is not to be considered formal legal advice.
We assist our clients by creating and implementing a customized estate plan depending on their particular needs and goals. Estate planning is the process of anticipating and arranging for the disposition of an estate during a person's life. Proper planning eliminates future uncertainties regarding the estate's administration and maximizes the value of the estate by reducing taxes and other expenses.
We offer a variety of legal services to help clients gain control of and distribute probate assets. Probate is a court proceeding that administers an estate by distributing property upon a person's death. In California, probate is designed to create a "final accounting" of an estate with more than $150,000 of net assets not titled in trust.
We represent clients in the position of trustee or beneficiary during the administration of a trust. Trust administration is a process that begins when the creator ("settlor") of the trust either dies or becomes unwilling or unable to serve as trustee. The process of administering a trust is complex and often difficult to comprehend for someone without extensive legal knowledge.
We represent individuals in all roles in a conservatorship of the person and estate, as a conservator, conservatee, or an interested party. In California, a conservatorship is a legal arrangement whereby a judge determines an adult is no longer capable of managing his or her financial affairs and/or daily life.
