​Who needs an estate plan; in a word, everybody. Even those of you who are still building your net worth.  Why?  A well-designed estate plan helps you control and manage the distribution of assets – during your lifetime and after death – in a tax-effective manner. 

Estate planning is not only for the elderly or the wealthy; it is for anyone who wishes to make his or her choices legally effective.

 

Our experienced estate planning attorneys are proficient in the legalities of wills, trusts and probate.

​

Can you answer the following questions with absolute certainty?

​

    Who will make your health care decisions if you are unable to make them?

​

    Who will sign legal documents for you if you are ill, incompetent, or unable?

​

    Will your doctors follow your wishes regarding end of life care?

​

    Will the government receive your assets when you die?

​

We create a personal plan for each client that addresses:

​

• Smooth transitions with emphasis on avoiding the unnecessary and wasteful probate court

• Accumulation of wealth and gifting opportunities

• Planning for retirement, illness or disability

• Planning for education expenses and needs of children and grandchildren

• Current business management and succession planning

• Disposition of assets at death, including trust planning for family members or other individual or charitable beneficiaries
