ESTATE PLANNING AND ADMINISTRATION

Planning today. Protecting tomorrow.

A thorough estate plan ensures that you and your loved ones are protected at their most vulnerable times – both during incapacity and at death. In addition to preparing wills, living trusts, powers of attorney for health care and property, and various irrevocable life insurance and gifting trusts, our estate planning attorneys can assist with succession plans for family-owned businesses, guidance for estate and gift tax scenarios, and probate protection. After the planning process is complete, our attorneys represent and guide our clients in the ongoing management of trusts and probate estates. As our population ages, matters of elder law, Medicaid benefit planning, and counsel for Alzheimer’s caregivers affect many of our clients, and we are experienced in all facets of these issues. Our Estate Planning attorneys also regularly advise and assist clients with estate planning, guardianship, and managing financial and medical concerns for children and adults with special needs.
