Unfortunately, many people never perform the simple act of drawing up a will or a living trust. These documents protect your children and your assets should an unforeseen event occur. Without estate planning, the courts will determine the custody of your children and the distribution of your assets. All court costs, administration and legal fees will be paid by your estate. Finally, your heirs may be forced to pay up to 60% of the estate to the federal government as a “death tax.”

These unfortunate circumstances can be avoided by having our firm draft a will or a living trust which can minimize or avoid probate and assure that your personal wishes, relative to the care of your children and the distribution of your estate, are honored.

Additionally, with all our wills or living trusts, we will provide a comprehensive package to include a “living will,” a power of attorney for health care, and a power of attorney for property which will benefit you in the event you are temporarily disabled. Furthermore, along with a living will, the power of attorney for health care will ensure that medical providers will strictly follow your wishes to the extent of medical care you will receive should you be in a terminal condition.
