Lakewood History & Facts
Lakewood is a city in Los Angeles County, California, United States. The population was 80,048 at the 2010 census. It is bordered by Long Beach on the west and south, Bellflower on the north, Cerritos on the northeast, Cypress on the east, and Hawaiian Gardens on the southeast.

Lakewood is a post-World War II planned community. Developers Louis Boyar, Mark Taper and Ben Weingart are credited with "altering forever the map of Southern California." Begun in late 1949, the completion of the developers' plan in 1953 helped in the transformation of mass-produced housing from its early phases in the 1930s and 1940s to the reality of the 1950s.
WWII veterans could get home loans with no down payment and a 30-year mortgage at only 4 percent interest. On the first day of sales, March 24, 1950, an estimated 30,000 people lined up to walk through a row of seven model houses. By the end of April, more than 200,000 people had flocked to the Lakewood Park sales office and more than 1,000 families had purchased homes (30 per day on average). On one occasion, 107 homes sold in just one hour. The monthly cost was $44 to $56, including principal, interest and insurance.

How A Probate Attorney Can Help Somebody
During the loss of a loved one the emotions and pressures that are present can be exhausting, frustrating, confusing, and can lead to poor decisions, or the inability to fully understand the process and what the best decision is for the situation at hand. While many have the idea that the deceased’s Last Will and Testament lays out all the disbursements and instructions of the estate this is furthest from the truth and unfortunately this document still leaves many decisions that must be made.
Probate is the legal process that allows for courts to solidify the validity of a will and allow for organized administration of an individual’s estate after he or she has passed away. Having experienced legal representation in the form of a Probate Attorney can help to make this process less stressful, and allow for the process to move forward quickly, and efficiently, without any legal delays. This process can be complex, and with the personal emotions involved can cause difficulties for families if they don’t have appropriate legal representation to work through the process.
While many would like to believe that the Probate process is an easy one, this is far from the case, and there are many factors which can impact the process of Probate in the estate. One of the primary benefits of utilizing a qualified Probate Attorney is to ensure that the wishes of the deceased is carried out appropriately, challenges of heirs are handled correctly, and that the disagreements that can arise are kept to a minimum and the impacts on the family reduced. Disagreements surrounding the terms of the estate, especially if creditors are involved can be resolved using a probate attorney while also ensuring that debts owed to the estate are paid as well.
