A month-by-month guide through California trust administration.

  • Months 2–12: inventory, creditor period, tax filings, accountings, and distribution — in order
  • The key deadlines box: the 120-day contest period, the 4-month creditor window, and tax cutoffs
  • The specific scenarios where professional help is critical — before mistakes create personal liability
