Estate planning is the process of anticipating and arranging, during a person’s life, for the management and disposal of that person’s estate during the person’s life, in the event the person becomes incapacitated and after death. An estate planning attorney can help you legally ascertain how your assets will be handled during your lifetime and how to disperse them after your death. We can also adjust your estate plan so it minimizes taxes and eliminates court costs and interference. The plan will be in the form of a legally binding document ensuring you have control of your finances, taxes, and medical plans.
