ESTATE PLANNING

Why do you need an estate plan? The simple answer is, if you die without one, all of your possessions are given away using generic government rules, with a large amount taken out in court fees, attorney expenses and taxes. An estate plan is customized to your life and needs. Also, an estate plan addresses what should happen and who should take care of you if you are in a coma or suffer from dementia.  For the in depth reason you need an estate plan;

PROBATE

We have no wish to see anyone have to be involved the difficulty and costly fiasco of a court monitored probate, but if it is too late to take steps to avoid it, we do have the experience to help you with this process.
