Wills and Trusts law governs how to properly dispose of your estate.

An ‘estate’ is simply the totality of what you own; this includes your house, but also your bank and retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and more. ‘Estate planning’ then, is the area of law that helps you create a plan for what to do with your estate were you to become unable to make decisions for yourself, your loved ones, (otherwise known as ‘incapacitated’), or upon your death.

Also known as ‘Estate planning,’ this area of law helps you create a plan for what to do with your estate were you to become unable to make decisions for yourself or upon your death.

While a ‘Will’ is the most common tool we’re likely familiar with, there are many others available, ranging from very complex to very simple. Depending on the size and complexity of your estate, you will want to consider different options. It is essential that you have an attorney guide you through the options available to you.

Since each person has a very different life situation, each person will likely have very different wishes and concerns.
