Personal Advice that MattersHaving an estate plan in place can provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones. An estate plan allows you to choose who will be in charge of handling your affairs when you no longer can and allows you to determine who will inherit your property. It also helps to ensure that your loved ones are taken care of according to your wishes.
We would be happy to discuss with you the creation of an estate plan that meets your needs and wishes or review with you any plan you currently have in place.
Estate & Trust Administration
Following the death of a loved one, there are steps that need to be taken in order to handle their affairs. We regularly work with executors and administrators through the probate process and with trustees through the process of administering a trust. We also provide guidance and assistance to those who may not be in control of administering an estate or trust but rather have questions or concerns related to an inheritance expectancy.

Guardianships
Guardianship of an adult may be necessary if the person lacks the ability to manage his or his person (health and welfare) or estate (finances). In such circumstances, particularly if the individual does not have valid Powers of Attorney in place, a guardianship may be necessary in order for another individual to have the power to make decisions and take action on behalf of the disabled person.
Guardianship of a minor may be necessary when the minor’s parents are deceased or otherwise not able to care for the child.
We can discuss with you whether guardianship may be necessary for your loved one and guide you through the process.
