Wills, Trusts, Probate and Estate Planning Lawyers

Planning

Estate planning consists of appointing agents to care for you if you are incapacitated and creating beneficiary designations to transfer assets.

Wills

A last will and testament establishes the beneficiaries of your assets, your executor, and the guardian of your minor children upon your death.

Trusts

A trust is a legal document created for various reasons, including to avoid probate or to manage and protect assets for young or special needs beneficiaries.

Probate

Probate is the court process of collecting a deceased person’s assets and distributing them according to his or her will, or if there is no will, via state law.

  • Avoiding the time and expense of probate court
  • Appointing a guardian to raise minor children
  • Protecting a child’s inheritance until they are mature enough to handle the money
  • Taking care of a spouse from a subsequent marriage while preserving the inheritance for the children of a previous marriage

We guide individuals who are acting as a fiduciary of an estate (i.e., executors) through the probate process, as well as trustees in the distribution and termination of trusts after the death of the trust maker. We advise the fiduciary of his or her legal responsibilities and provide tips for making the process as simple as possible.
