Keystone Law Group is proud to announce that Partner Monica Yun and Senior Associate Casey Reagan have been featured in the Daily Journal Corporation’s inaugural 2025 Top Estate and Wealth Management Lawyers supplement, which highlights leading voices in California’s trusts and estates field.
- Yun’s article, “Estate of Martino: Rethinking Stepchild Inheritance Under Intestacy,” explores how a recent appellate decision provides new avenues for nonbiological children to establish rightful heirship.
- Reagan’s article, “Making Property Changes Stick in Probate,” examines the role of transmutation in ensuring property changes are legally enforceable and provide clarity to beneficiaries.
“It is an honor to have my article featured in the Daily Journal, especially on such a critical topic,” said Monica Yun. “The Estate of Martino case highlights how the law is evolving to better reflect the realities of blended families. My hope is that this piece helps shine a light on ways we can ensure fairness and clarity for stepchildren and other nonbiological heirs.”
Casey Reagan added, “I’m grateful for the opportunity to share insights on transmutation in probate. These issues may seem technical, but they have real consequences for families. My goal was to provide guidance that helps practitioners and beneficiaries navigate property changes with confidence.”
Keystone celebrates Yun and Reagan’s contributions as part of the firm’s ongoing commitment to advancing probate litigation and estate administration. Their inclusion in the Daily Journal’s supplement underscores Keystone’s dedication to thought leadership and client‑centered excellence in the trusts and estates field.
