Wills & Estates

It is not something we like to think about, but it is best to plan for the inevitable before it happens. In that way, you can avoid paying more in estate taxes than is necessary. You won’t leave your children at the mercy of the court in deciding how they are provided for and who cares for them. You can clan in advance how and when your property is distributed at your passing. Also, you will keep peace in your family.

If you live in Alabama and own real property, you may need a living trust, and in order to address who manages your property in the event that you are incapacitated, you will also need the following documents:

• Pour over will
• Advanced healthcare directive
• Financial power of attorney
• Medical records release authorization

We offer the following:

• A living trust package, personalized and customized for your particular needs and situation.
• Consultations with an attorney who will explain all of your options to you and who will provide you personal one-on-one attention.
• More than 30 years of experience and expertise in estate planning matters.
• We use the most advanced computer software to prepare your estate planning documents. With these programs, we can prepare a customized living trust package rapidly and pass the savings on to you.
• The security that your living trust has been prepared by knowledgeable lawyers and not by an Internet company that only asks three or four questions before preparing your documents. A generic living trust package rarely addresses all of the key situations facing an individual or family.
