Many people put off thinking about what will happen to their estate after they die. There are many benefits to planning now, however. Having a will or trust in place can ensure that your property is distributed the way you want among your heirs and beneficiaries. 

Clients are counseled regarding the importance of having a will and developing an estate plan. Through proper planning, clients' wishes regarding the disposition of their assets can be accomplished in a manner calculated to minimize estate taxation.

As clients grow older and require increasing attention, legal counseling from an experienced estate attorney ensures that clients’ desires regarding their medical care are respected. Moreover, by properly planning in advance, clients may qualify for available governmental medical assistance preserving as much of their financial assets as possible for the benefit of their families.

You will want to consider documents that allow you to direct how your financial and medical affairs will be handled should you become incapacitated, such as living wills, powers of attorney and health care proxies. 

For example, recent events have brought to light the importance of having a living will to plan for possible physical or mental incapacity.
