When do I need an Estate Plan?

Every individual should have a well-prepared estate plan to ensure that their loved ones and property are taken care of according to their wishes. Creating or reviewing an estate plan is especially important if you have young children or if you’ve been through a divorce or remarriage.

At a minimum, an estate plan includes a Will, Power of Attorney, and Advance Medical Directive.  A more comprehensive estate plan will include trusts and advance estate planning tools.

Estate plans can be simple or complicated, depending on your goals.  We will listen to you and provide our recommendations to help you accomplish your wishes.
