Foreign nationals often face challenges in California Probate Court proceedings that many local practitioners are not aware of. Some of these challenges, which can be quite onerous, are best addressed prior to the death of a foreign national client, to the extent possible

Topics
• Whether a foreign national can serve as a personal representative (including issues with bond)
• Obtaining original will
• Obtaining an EIN when personal representative is not a US resident
• Exclusion from reassessment for transfers between parent and child when decedent does not have a social security number
• Choice of law when will executed outside of the Untied States and decedent died in a third country
• Estate tax
