Experienced Wills and Trusts Attorneys
Many people do not draft a will, create trusts, or have estate documents because they believe their estate is too small. However, wills can serve a number of functions, including naming a guardian for minor children, selecting an independent executor for the estate, or creating a trust for grandchildren or family members with special needs. There is a broad range of estate tools that can be used to direct assets and establish who will make financial and medical decisions if you become incapacitated. Some of these are:
- Wills and trusts
- Durable power of attorney for property
- Living trusts
- Living wills
- Advanced health care directives
- Health care power of attorney
- Business succession plans
At Modica & Dowden , we work with you to create wills, trusts and estate documents that are appropriate for your situation. We can continue to modify your plan as your life changes.
