Wills & Trusts

Which Trust or Will Can Best Serve Your Interests?

An Estate Planning Attorney Can Help You Protect Your Family With a Will

Having an estate plan is an effective way of making sure that your family is protected in the event that something happens to you. When a person dies without a will or an estate plan in place (intestate) your family may have to endure unneeded stress, long-lasting family strife and extra expense. Worse, they will be needing to deal with these issues at the worst possible time, when they are grieving a loss.

Anyone over the age of 18 should have a will, even if it is a simple will.

  • There are trusts to prevent spendthrift daughters or sons from spending all of your estate too quickly.
  • There are trusts to provide for an adult child with special needs.
  • There are education trusts, land trusts, revocable and irrevocable trusts.
