How you would like your property and assets to be handled after your death is something that everyone should think about, but are often reluctant to do so. We begin the estate planning process by listening to your goals and providing you with a series of options that may be available, as well advising you of any laws that may affect the estate distribution. By focusing on your individual needs, we will then tailor an estate plan that protects you and your family as well as your property and assets. In addition to this, we can also help you prepare for a time when you may no longer be able to handle your own finances, or make decisions about your healthcare. Lastly, when it is time to either probate your estate or distribute your assets, we compassionately seek to ensure your wishes are honored and your legacy enhanced for the benefit of your family.
