Estate Planning & Probate
What happens to your loved ones when you are gone? What happens to your property? Will your disabled child be taken care of? Do you need the court's help to protect yourself or someone else? Do you want to save as much as you can in estate tax?
Your lawyer can help on all these things. He knows that your estate planning needs change over time. He can also explain to you the living wills, general durable powers of attorney, a health care powers of attorney, your last will and testament, and other questions you have. Remember that everyone - and we mean everyone - has questions and need common sense answers and help.
Our firm has been in the Estate Planning & Probate field for over 10 years. We can answer your questions and then do the legal work necessary to meet your needs and carry out your wishes. Don't be drawn in by the "will kits" that are advertised on TV. The ads say that the will kit is "good in all 50 states". We can assure you that there is no one set of estate planning documents that is "good in all 50 states". Most people don't have complicated estates but they do need competent legal help. Don't gamble your life's work on a $100 will kit.
Your lawyer should question you carefully to make sure that she has all the information necessary to do her best for you. This is sensitive information that you want to keep confidential. Our firm has procedures in place that can help assure the confidentiality of your most personal and sensitive matters. Our firm can then prepare your estate planning that puts your mind to rest so that you can continue to enjoy life.
