Penner & Purves

Our law firm offers estate plans and charitable giving plans to families anywhere in California, integrating the whole of life in a way that includes the spiritual, intellectual, human, and financial aspects of a family’s wealth. We also serve clients locally in trust administration, trust litigation, probate, probate litigation, and family law. Because we live in a time of rootlessness and lack of education where the “spirit of innovation” often prevails, the project of our law firm could be described as Thomist, Benedictine, and Burkean. As Edmund Burke argued, traditional liberties are enshrined in the established structures of church, law, and family. They are passed down through familial “systems of inheritance,” thus “binding up the constitution of our country with our dearest domestic ties” and “adopting our fundamental laws into the bosom of our family affections.” It is to this end that our law firm does everything that we do.
