- Making the transfer of assets post-death as simple as possible for the client’s family/beneficiaries
- Avoiding the time and expense of probate court
- Appointing a guardian to raise minor children
- Protecting a child’s inheritance until they are mature enough to handle the money
- Taking care of a spouse from a subsequent marriage while preserving the inheritance for the children of a previous marriage
- Providing for a disabled or handicapped beneficiary
- Providing for a beneficiary who is a spendthrift
- Avoiding or minimizing estate taxes
During this process, we also ensure our clients have the proper documentation so that the appropriate person can make health care decisions and financial decisions for them should they become incapacitated.
In addition, our lawyers also assist individuals with the logistics of transferring assets after a loved one passes away. We guide individuals who are acting as a fiduciary of an estate (i.e., executors) through the probate process, as well as trustees in the distribution and termination of trusts after the death of the trust maker. We advise the fiduciary of his or her legal responsibilities and provide tips for making the process as simple as possible.
