Manuel Iglesias Concrete The Iglesias family has been doing concrete work for many years. Licensed since 2006 and with 40+ years of experience, Manuel Iglesias decided to start his own business, Manuel Iglesias Concrete. Manuel says he loves the industry, mainly because he grew up doing it. In addition, “Being able to experience a trade where I can look back and see the art & beauty of the work is very important to me. Everywhere I look, I can see something I’ve worked on,” says Manuel. Whatever your concrete needs are, Manuel Iglesias Concrete can build your dreams. From patios, walkways, retaining walls and foundations to stamped concrete, steps, brick and flagstone overlay, concrete staining & sealing, Manuel Iglesias will create your vision beautifully. They listen to what their customers want in a design and also specialize in designing concrete if the client isn’t exactly sure what they want. In addition, they take advantage of all seminars and training classes to continually learn more about their industry and anything that will help them keep up with the changing field and hardscape designs. Beyond your home you can see some of their work in the city Public Works foundations, curbs and gutters.
Laurie Iglesias, Manuel’s wife, runs the office and tells us about a small job they had last year where the client purchased a gazebo and needed a small octagon shaped pad for it. They couldn’t afford much, so Manuel was able to help them out with cost and came up with a beautiful leaf design that turned into a gorgeous patio for their gazebo. “It made the client very happy and that is what I love most about the work my husband does,” says Laurie. Testimonials “Manuel, Greg and their crew went above and beyond in delivering the foundation we needed. My framer has told me over and over that our slab is one of the truest he’s built on. Manuel has built a successful and professional business by being honest, straight forward and friendly. I recommend you talk to Manuel if you’re looking for a concrete contractor.”
“From the very beginning of the process to the very end these guys were absolutely the best! I delayed the bid for 6-8 months, no problem. Everyone on the crew from the foreman to guys pushing wheel barrels was professional and polite. Each day they cleaned up the site and swept the driveway and work area. The final product was just outstanding!! I will definitely recommend and use this company again.” Christopher B., Brentwood “We have had Manuel out to the house four times. His crew works neatly and efficiently. Manuel listened to what we wanted and added some design features of his own to make the work unique. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a new patio to a new fence.” Ed H., Brentwood, CA
Kevin P., Moraga “When faced with having a great amount of cement work to be done, including a driveway, we did a fair amount of research and we knew we placed our trust in the right hands with Manuel Iglesias. The work was completed better than expected and the result was a very high quality, detailed and very artistic job. We love it and everyone has only positive things to say about it.” O. & H., Oakley

LAW OFFICES OF JOAN GRIMES
A Daughter Tries to Help Her Mom When preparing estate planning documents for our clients, we always prepare a Durable Power of Attorney for finances. However, I have recently discovered that many clients do not really understand under what circumstances the Durable Power of Attorney for finances is used. The Problem: Dad passed away. Mom has been happily living alone for years. However, Mom is now 90 years old and is starting to have minor memory issues. Daughter offers to help Mom and Mom gratefully accepts. Mom has already appointed Daughter to serve as Successor Trustee of Mom’s Revocable Living Trust. Mom has also appointed Daughter to serve as her agent under the Durable Power of Attorney for finances. Daughter goes to the bank alone with Mom’s Revocable Living Trust and Durable Power of Attorney for finances. Bank
Representative denies Daughter access to Mom’s bank account stating that the account is owned by Mom’s Revocable Living Trust. Bank Representative informs Daughter that under the terms of Mom’s Revocable Living Trust, Daughter can only access Mom’s accounts after Mom has been formally declared incompetent by a doctor. (Jeez! What a nightmare!)
In general, the Durable Power of Attorney for finances allows your appointed agent to control your Non-Trust assets. Unless specific language is included, your Durable Power of Attorney cannot be used to manage Trust assets. (Note: You should also carefully read your Durable Power of Attorney to determine when it becomes effective.)
Daughter next tries to access Mom’s accounts using the Durable Power of Attorney for finances. Bank Representative again denies Daughter access because the Durable Power of Attorney does not specifically allow Daughter to control Trust assets.
When establishing your Revocable Living Trust, you need to understand what assets are in your Revocable Living Trust. If you want assistance managing your Trust assets prior to incapacity, you should consider appointing a Co-Trustee to help. If you want assistance managing your Non-Trust assets prior to incapacity, your Durable Power of Attorney needs to include specific language.
Daughter is beyond frustrated and comes to our office for help. The Solution: If Daughter needs to access Mom’s Trust assets, Mom can appoint Daughter as CoTrustee. Once appointed as Co-Trustee, Daughter can control and manage Mom’s Trust assets even without a formal incapacity declaration from a doctor. If Daughter needs to help Mom manage her Non-Trust assets (IRAs/annuities/life insurance policies), Daughter may be able to use the Durable Power of Attorney. The Take-Away:

a day of the week and schedule 10-15 minutes. Breaking the task down into small bite meaning one day and one room will make it manageable, and help fit it in your busy schedule. Stay on top of it! Do a clutter check each week. Block out an hour to sort and organize anything that’s fallen out of place.
Get Organized and Stay Clutter-Free So let’s say you are tired of clutter and do your annual or often quarterly spring cleaning, now what? Once you’ve organized and simplified your home or office how do you keep it that way? Here are some tips that will help. The primary tip is to give everything a place. As my dad used to say “ A place for everything and everything in its place”. A simple thought and saying but if you think about it, that is the very key to being and staying organized. This applies to everything big and small — from remote controls, keys and phone chargers to paperwork, sports equipment and Christmas decorations. First designate an area and then invest in storage containers or use cardboard boxes to keep It all contained and organized. If your home is large, assign each room
Create a catch all area in the main rooms such as the kitchen and living room that tend to collect things. Place a bin in these rooms and collect Items that belong elsewhere, at the end of the week, put things away. If you find that the Items In the bin are mostly toys and games, put your children in charge to put them away. Rethink your purchases. In order to live a less-cluttered simpler life you need to consciously think about what you want versus what you actually need. Commit to maintain a constant number of items in your home and then donate or give away a similar Item each time you purchase a new one. For example, if you buy a new shirt donate one to make room or if you want a new decoration have a place for it or donate something you already own. Review every quarter, especially if you have children. Kids tend to outgrow clothes, games, toys and other Items very quickly. It is amazing how much “stuff”
you never use. Sorting through items every few months will ensure that your home will stay tidy and under control. Paperwork is a huge culprit. Think about signing up for paperless billing for all of your monthly bills, credit cards, utilities etc. and then you can store in a folder on your computer and in the cloud, out of sight but just a search word away. Keep a hard folder or safety deposit box for pink slips and other important hard documents. However designate a place for these and your tax paperwork so it doesn’t get out of control. The key is of course to stay vigilant and you can live clutter free. But if you find you need a larger house give me a call.
