The Estate Planning Process
Our attorneys will work closely with you to understand your family, your financial situation, your values and your goals. Then we will draft documents that can help you achieve your goals. At a minimum, this should include a will, a health care proxy and power of attorney. We can also address more challenging situations, such as the creation of a special needs trust for a disabled adult child, planning for retirement or other concerns. When your family and financial situations change, we can update your estate plan and documents for a reasonable fee.

We have experience in complex estate matters, such as business succession, estate tax minimization strategies and other problems our clients face. In these matters, we often work with accountants, business valuation specialists and other outside professionals to achieve our clients' goals.
