Estate Planning

How do you want to be remembered? What will be your legacy? Creating an estate plan can ensure your wishes are carried out.


What will happen if something happens to you?

Our comprehensive estate planning services are designed to help you protect your assets, protect your family, and ensure your wishes are communicated and carried out. Estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy or older adults. Our services are scaled to fit the needs of various life stages and ages. Our estate planning clients come to us to protect their assets and loved ones. They tell us things like:

  • I want to make sure my children will be loved and cared for, both physically and financially.
  • I recently got married or divorced. I want to make sure I have an estate plan that reflects where I am now in my life.
  • I have significant income, assets or debt. I want to make sure my family is covered if anything happens to me.
  • I have heard the probate process is long and expensive. I want to avoid it if at all possible. How do I do that?
  • I own a company. What happens to the company if something happens to me?
  • I have siblings and I worry who will inherit the family farm or business. I want everything clarified now, so there’s no confusion later.
Don’t wait until you have an accident or illness to start the estate planning process. Begin when you have time to consider all your options.
