Our estate planning attorneys create comprehensive, customized estate plans designed to protect your assets, your family, and your wishes—both during your lifetime and after your death. An effective estate plan answers critical questions such as: Who will receive my assets? Who will make decisions for me if I cannot? How can my family avoid unnecessary stress, expense, and court involvement?
Unfortunately, more than 50% of Americans die without a will or estate plan. When that happens, the government—not you—decides how your assets are distributed, who manages your estate, and who may care for your minor children. These default rules often result in delays, higher costs, family conflict, and outcomes that do not reflect the decedent’s true intentions.
Estate planning is not just about what happens after you pass away—it also prepares for periods of illness, injury, or incapacity. We draft clear legal documents that appoint trusted individuals to manage your finances, make medical decisions, and carry out your wishes if you are unable to do so yourself. Without these protections in place, your loved ones may be forced to seek court approval to act on your behalf.
