Estate Planning Services in Gilbert, AZ
Under the umbrella of estate planning, I offer a wide range of services tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Whether you're just starting the planning process or need to update an existing plan, I'm here to guide you through each step. Here are some of the primary estate planning services I provide:
1. Wills and Trusts
Having a valid will or trust is essential to ensure your wishes are followed after your passing. Thankfully, I can help you draft a comprehensive will that details how you want your assets distributed and appoints a guardian for your minor children if necessary. Additionally, trusts can offer various benefits, such as avoiding probate and protecting assets from creditors, and I can assist in creating revocable or irrevocable trusts based on your unique circumstances.
2. Power of Attorney and Healthcare Directives
Preparing for potential incapacitation is crucial, and I can help you establish durable power of attorney documents that designate someone to make financial and legal decisions on your behalf. Healthcare directives, such as a living will or healthcare power of attorney, ensure that your medical wishes are respected in case you are unable to express them yourself.
3. Beneficiary Designations and Asset Protection
I work closely with clients to review and update beneficiary designations on assets like retirement accounts and life insurance policies. Properly managing beneficiary designations is vital to align your desires with the distribution of these assets. Furthermore, I can help you implement strategies to protect your assets from potential threats, such as creditors or lawsuits.
4. Estate AdministrationWhen a loved one passes away, administering their estate can be overwhelming. But with my knowledge and expertise, I can guide you through the probate process, ensuring all legal requirements are met and the estate is distributed in accordance with the decedent's wishes.
5. Estate Planning for Small Business Owners
As a small business owner myself, I understand the unique challenges and concerns that arise when planning for the future of a business. With this in mind, I offer specialized estate planning services for business owners, such as succession planning, buy-sell agreements, and asset protection strategies.
