Estate Planning

Complete estate planning includes much more than the preparation of documents. Wills, trusts, and a power of attorney
may all be necessary, depending on a client’s needs. Just as important though is the willingness to take the time to
understand a client’s wishes and fears. Estate planning is a difficult and simply uncomfortable issue for many people.
Open communication and a full understanding of your plan will bring a feeling of security, knowing that your wishes are
properly stated. I will take the time to discuss your situation and to develop a proper plan, before any will or any other
instrument is prepared. Once we determine what is necessary, I will prepare and fully explain the documents required to
carry out your wishes. My services include:

preparing a will, trust, power of attorney, living will, and other documents as necessary;

minimizing estate and gift tax liabilities;

planning for retirement;

using life insurance policies; and

		litigating will, estate, and trust issues.
