Estate Planning |
| |
We advise individual clients and their families on the use of traditional and innovative estate planning arrangements for the management, conservation and transfer of wealth. Through detailed consultations with our clients, we can create estate plans that provide 1) optimal utilization of assets during life, 2) orderly disposition of assets after death that fulfills testamentary objectives and family needs, and 3) avoidance of taxes and probate administration. In addition, we work with clients to create advanced health care directives to provide clarity and dignity with respect to medical decisions in the event of incapacity.
