From our perspective Estate Planning is much more than just deciding what happens when you die. It also involves planning to manage your affairs and make medical decisions if you are injured or incapacitated. A comprehensive Estate Plan involves having a plan in place for the custody of minor children. Yes, it is also the best way to designate what you wish to have done with your wealth to benefit your family, your friends or your favorite charitable causes. We represent clients in estate planning cases involving everything from simple wills and power of attorney forms to multiple generation irrevocable trusts and private family charitable foundations. There is no standard “cookie cutter” approach to estate planning, and we strive to design, draft and implement specific solutions for our clients to allow them to preserve what they have, protect it to the maximum extent possible, and pass it on to those they care most about.
