Our attorneys share about the estate planning process, and how they help you make the most sensible estate-planning decisions — decisions that will affect you and your family for many years.
Why You Need an Estate Planning Lawyer
Estate planning can involve decisions about small or family-owned businesses, life insurance policies, real estate investments, and 401(k) investment portfolios — assets you’ve spent years working hard to build.
How will you protect those assets and ensure they are allocated as you wish?
If you own property, have children, or a charitable cause you’re passionate about, you must have an estate plan. The word “estate” might make you think of a mansion resting on sprawling, well-groomed property. In other words, a wealthy person’s property.
However, estate planning is not something only wealthy and elderly people do.
Whatever you own is your estate — your home, land, 401k, investments, a business, etc. You need a legally-binding estate plan to ensure your assets are distributed as you would like upon death or incapacitation.
