About Erik M.

Erik M. Aanestad built a steady trail into trust and property regulation. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Arizona in 1997 and later took up legal research, receiving his J.D. from Florida Coastal School of Law in 2007. Those educational steps set the stage for a practice that crosses state lines.

After law program he gained admission to practice in Nevada and later further California to his jurisdictions. He has been a member of the State Bar of Nevada since 2007. Over time he developed a practice centered on property planning, estate administration things and trust management.

In 2015 he founded Aanestad Law. The firm is presented as Aanestad Law, A Trust & Estate Planning Firm and he serves as a founding partner. Under his management the company has targeted on advising individuals and families on wills, trusts and the mechanics of transferring belongings after death.

Aanestad has participated in expert teams that reflect his practice area. He holds memberships in ElderCounsel and WealthCounsel, organizations that serve practitioners who work on property and senior law problems. He is likewise a part of the Gold Country Estate Planning Council and the Nevada County Bar Association. Outside legal circles he joined the Rotary Club of Grass Valley in 2016.

Colleagues describe his work as methodical and client-oriented. He spends time explaining alternatives to clients, reviewing documents and guiding executors and trustees through procedural steps. Cases have a tendency to be realistic instead of headline-grabbing. Most contain drafting wills and trusts, advising on probate filings or managing confidence administrations.

His practice attracts on knowledge of both Nevada and California regulation. That twin jurisdiction perspective matters for clients with property or household ties that cross state lines. He also networks with other mavens—monetary planners and tax advisors—to coordinate aspects of property plans that contact on investments and tax implications.
