Estates

No one likes to lose control of their affairs or leave a mess behind for others to pick up, and some advance planning can avoid both scenarios. Many of the tools available are simple and very cost-effective. An attorney like Chris can help you understand the options, consider second-level choices that are often overlooked (especially with do-it-yourself products) and set up a plan that will take care of your affairs if you become incapacitated and that will help your loved ones transition after you've gone. Chris can help with:

  • Wills, including trusts and guardianships for children
  • Revocable trusts (sometimes called living or inter vivos trusts)
  • Irrevocable trusts
  • Property transfers or ownership changes to coordinate with your estate plan
  • Probate of estates, and pre-death options for avoiding probate
  • Protection of your rights as an heir or surviving spouse

When it's important to you

There are basically two kinds of clients – those desiring to pursue or maximize opportunities, and those looking for an acceptable resolution to a problem. Chris has capably served both for many years. Whatever your project, we know it is important to you. Chris will give you counsel that is timely, sensible and practical.
