Practice areas
A focused practice in three areas that often meet in a family’s life: planning an estate, settling one, and managing the property that passes through it. Many clients come to us for one matter and return for the next, because the same attorney already knows their family.
-
Estate planning, wills and trusts
Revocable living trusts, wills, powers of attorney and health care directives, drafted so your family avoids probate court and your wishes are carried out as you intend.
-
Probate
Guiding executors and families through the Northern California probate process, from petition to final distribution, including trust administration after a death.
-
Unlawful detainer and landlord-tenant
Representing property owners and tenants in evictions, lease disputes and security deposit matters under California’s detailed landlord-tenant rules.
Esther A. Ralich
Attorney at Law, founder of Ralich Law
Esther Ralich was born and raised in Sacramento. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Business with a concentration in Accounting from California State University, Sacramento, and her Juris Doctor from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law.
Her accounting background shapes how she practices: she reads a balance sheet as comfortably as a contract, which matters when an estate, a trust or a rental property is on the table. She is admitted to practice in all California state courts and in the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Northern Districts of California.
