Estates
There are many options available when creating an estate plan. However, not every method available is appropriate for everyone. The knowledgeable attorneys at Barnett Law Firm, Chtd., offer over 90 years of combined experience, and through that experience have learned how to effectively create individual estate plans that reflect each client's unique circumstances and goals.
Estate Planning Assistance
The wills and trusts attorneys at Barnett Law Firm, Chtd. listen to our clients when creating estate plans. We evaluate what assets our clients have, what form their assets are in, and what our clients would like to do with those assets upon their passing. Once we have a thorough understanding of their individual circumstances, we create an individual estate plan drafted specifically to address and meet those goals and potentially to avoid probate. Some estate planning instruments we utilize may include:
- Wills
- Trusts
- Power of Attorney
- Durable Power of Attorney
- Living Will
- Transfer of death deeds or beneficiary funds
- Other estate planning mechanisms
