Cupertino Estate Planning Attorney
Need a lawyer for estate planning in Cupertino?
While you might have plans for how you want your loved ones to benefit from your assets after you are gone, these plans will not be realized if you do not make the appropriate arrangements. This is called estate planning. When you turn to our law firm, the Law Offices of Timothy D. Henry, you get to have a skilled Cupertino estate planning lawyer guide you through the process of estate planning so that you can work to ensure that your loved ones receive their rightful inheritance.
Setting up a strong estate plan can also help you document your wishes concerning your future medical care (should you ever become incapacitated), and it can help you set up guardianship for any minor children or disabled dependents.
Creating a strong estate plan usually involves writing a will that is well-written. Wills provide you and your loved ones with a higher level of asset protection, greatly improving the chances that your assets will end up in the right hands with the least amount of hassle involved.
Our firm helps individuals who are writing such wills, as well as the designated administrators or executors who are trying to settle estates once their loved ones have passed away. We guide individuals who need help through the estate administration process, including individuals who are facing challenges in probate court.
Exploring Your Estate Planning Options
There are also many other ways that you can plan ahead for the wellbeing of both yourself and your loved ones. You can plan ahead for the day when you might become unable to make your own decisions, such as if you ever become disabled or incapacitated. By establishing powers of attorney, you decide who will make important decisions on your behalf should that day ever come.
You can also set up advance health care directives that document your decisions about future life support and medical care (usually end-of-life care). Furthermore, we help clients who need help setting up revocable living trusts for their loved ones, as well as clients who are dealing with trust administration issues.
