Estate Planning, Wills, Trusts, Probate

Asset and estate planning includes managing and protecting assets during the client’s life and arranging for passing assets to later generations through the client’s estate. That planning requires knowledge of estate and income tax consequences of holding and transferring assets, familiarity with the probate process and use of trusts, wills, powers of attorney and medical directives. More importantly, it also requires an understanding of the client’s individual situation, needs and wishes, including the client’s family and business. We pride ourselves on our personal relationships with our clients and their families, often extending across several generations.
