Services We Provide for Our Estate Clients
Our team provides numerous services related to estate planning. You can turn to us for assistance if you want to focus on:
Your Last Will and Testament
Setting up your will can ensure that future generations of your family get exactly what you want them to have after your passing. We can help with wills that involve trusts, special needs trusts, and young adult children.
We take your family relationships into consideration when handling this form of planning.
Living Trusts
A living trust allows you to protect your assets and direct the distribution of these assets in the future. Setting up this type of trust can help your beneficiaries and members of your family avoid a complex and costly probate process.
We have the legal experience necessary to set up a trust and to explain trust administration.
Durable Powers of Attorney
Our legal practice can help you set up a durable power of attorney as part of your estate planning. This legally binding document can authorize an agent you select to handle both financial and legal matters on your behalf.
This type of power of attorney (POA) remains effective if you find yourself incapacitated or unable to make decisions for some reason, including due to a medical emergency.
You can set up both a financial and medical durable POA. Your estate attorney can provide more information about these documents and which ones will serve you best.
Health Care Directives
A health care directive gives you the ability to make decisions about the kind of healthcare services you want to receive if you can no longer speak for yourself. It is crucial that you set up this information to ensure that medical professionals adhere to your wishes when providing medical care.
