Our Estate Planning Practice
When you hire us to help you establish a plan for a complex or high net worth estate, we will begin the process by gathering as much information as we can about your financial situation, as well as your estate planning objectives. We will help you understand the different strategies for reaching your goals, including the use of wills and trusts, the re-titling of assets to avoid probate, and lifetime gifts. We will then recommend a comprehensive strategy for ensuring the orderly distribution of your estate.
Once you have selected the best approach to fit your needs, we will prepare and execute the documents required to put your plan in place, including:
- Simple or complex wills
- Inter vivos or testamentary trusts
- Powers of attorney
- Health care directives
Our Probate Practice
We also assist clients with the administration of estates, as well as any litigation or appeals that may arise. We work with executors, administrators, trustees, personal representatives and heirs, helping them complete the steps required to settle an estate or trust. We can help you prepare an inventory of assets, oversee the payment of all final debts and taxes of the estate, and supervise the orderly distribution of property under the terms of the will.
We handle all controversies that arise from the probate administration process, from will contests related to allegations of undue influence or lack of capacity, to breaking or enforcing a will or trust, to breaches of fiduciary duties.
