Practice Information

I have over thirty five years of experience in law, business, real estate, government and politics. I have settled in the Palm Springs area because I love the weather, the people and the lifestyle. (I’ve given up wearing ties except when I am in court or at a speaking engagement!)

In the world of estate planning much of my duty is not only making sure wishes are executed properly, but also providing sound advice and guidance in what can sometimes be an overwhelming sea of information, advice and expert opinion. An effective estate plan can help you transfer assets before and after death while minimizing taxes, and retain control over your health decisions if you become incapacitated. Whether you’re helping your parents or loved ones prepare a will, living trust, power of attorney or advanced health care directive (also known as a health care power of attorney or living will) or you’re in your golden years and want to make sure your estate is distributed properly we can work with you locally, or across the world to develop a plan.

Coping with the passing of a family member is difficult enough without having to sort through the intricacies of probate court. Whether the person died without a will (called intestacy) or with a will, the probate court will take the assets of the decease, use them to pay the bills and distribute the balance of the estate to the persons named under the will, or among living heirs if the person died intestate. Probate is usually challenging, takes a longtime, and can subject the estate to significant expenses. Robert Firth is a Palm Springs probate attorney who represents individuals and families in probate court and can help get a family member named as the “Administrator” of the estate to ensure that the deceased’ bills are paid and the assets are distributed equitably.
