One major area in which we provide legal support is through the formation of wills. Wills are an essential part of setting up a successful estate plan because, when they are well written, they can greatly reduce the chances that major problems will occur in the process of distributing the estate in the future. These legal documents allow estate holder to designate certain assets as being set aside for specific heirs.
Wills also allow individuals to communicate their wishes, such as who should obtain guardianship of any minor children or incapacitated dependents who are left behind. There are also many other ways in which we can help our clients with estate planning.
