Estate Planning And Probate

Estate Law Attorneys Serving The Needs Of Clients And Their Families

At The Shaw Law Group, we are here to help individuals and families thrive, and our estate planning practice is an important component of that mission.

When you think of estate planning, words like “old” and “wealthy” might come to mind. But the simple truth is that estate planning is for adults of every age and income level. No matter how modest you consider your estate to be, you’ve earned those assets and deserve to protect them. Moreover, if you have a family, estate planning is an important way to ensure that they would be protected and cared for in your absence.

What Should Be Included In Your Estate Plan?

These days, estate planning encompasses more than just what happens to your assets after you pass away. It can also include planning for the financial and medical contingencies you may face later in life (sometimes referred to as elder law planning). Your estate plan may include:

  • A will
  • A named executor of the estate
  • One or more trusts
  • A living will (or advanced health care directive)
  • A designated durable power of attorney
  • Medicare planning

We can help you create a customized estate plan that meets your goals and gives you peace of mind. We can also help you update your plan periodically (as circumstances change), even if we didn’t create the original plan.

Additional Estate Law Services

If you recently lost a loved one and have been named as executor of their estate, you may be feeling unsure how to handle your responsibilities. You’re not alone – many people in this position feel the same way. The good news is that an experienced attorney can make the process much faster and easier. Our firm works side by side with executors in probate and estate administration matters, ensuring that all duties are carried out as directed and that the decedent’s final wishes are honored.
