Samuel B. Ledwitz J.D., LLM, the President and Managing Partner of Bezaire, Ledwitz and Associates nearly grew up in San Gabriel. In fact, his postal code actually read “San Gabriel.”
The hamlet of Sierra Madre, tucked away at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, is one of the hidden jewels of Southern California. So, it should be no wonder that it is a place Samuel B. Ledwitz, J.D., LL.M, and the President and Managing Partner of Bezaire, Ledwitz and Associates, himself has liked to frequent for years.
Growing up in nearby Temple City, it was a quick drive past the freeway to get to Sierra Madre. Once there, Samuel would eat at one of the many outdoor restaurants, buy his mother a present at one of the boutiques in town and just hang out with friends.
Or on a nice sunny day Samuel would head off on a hike through Bailey Canyon or along the Mount Wilson Trail with a group of friends.
The beauty of Sierra Madre is that it is so quaint, it doesn’t even have a stoplight even though it is located in the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area.

Keeping Track of Trust Assets
When someone passes away, one of the first things a Trustee need to do is to find out what assets are in the trust, which need to be put into the trust, and which have direct beneficiary designations. Most estate plans have an inventory sheet where all the trust assets are listed, but most people ignore it, or the inventory in it gets outdated over time.
The best place to start is by collecting the deceased person’s mail.

How the ERC can help keep businesses on track financially
It’s no secret that the past few years have been rough for most business owners. But just because the pandemic is just about in the rear-view mirror, that doesn’t mean financial help for businesses is no longer available.
Longtime estate planning attorney Samuel B. Ledwitz, who also works with dozens of small business owners, said the employee retention credit — or ERC — can still help businesses get back — or stay — on fiscal track.
