Estate Planning

Estate planning is about more than just preparing for the distribution of your assets after you pass. It is about ensuring that your wishes regarding healthcare, financial management, and the care of your loved ones are respected. We help individuals and families create legal arrangements that reflect their values and goals, including wills, living trusts, powers of attorney, and living wills. By planning ahead, you can have peace of mind knowing that your loved ones will be taken care of, according to your wishes.

What is a Will?

A will is a written document that allows you to designate who will receive your estate after you die, who will raise your children if you die while they are still minors, and who will serve as your personal representative. It is a way to ensure that your assets are distributed as you wish and that your loved ones are cared for in the way you intend.

Why Should I Write a Will?

If you have accumulated some assets and care who will receive those assets after you die, it is time to write a will. Anyone with minor children should also have a will to name a guardian for them. Writing a will gives you control over who will manage your estate and ensure that your wishes are respected.

What if I Die Without a Will?

If you die without a will, the court will appoint a personal representative to distribute your entire estate according to state law. This means that the court will decide who will manage your estate and distribute your assets, rather than you having a say in the matter. It is generally recommended to avoid this situation by creating a will.
