What Is Estate Planning — And Why It Matters

Estate planning is the process of making important legal decisions now to protect your loved ones, your assets, and your future wishes. Whether you're married, have children, own a home, or simply want peace of mind, a comprehensive estate plan helps ensure your family is protected—no matter what happens.
 

That’s why I help clients create a complete, customized estate plan built around their needs. The most common estate planning documents I prepare include:

• Last Will and Testament – Outlines how you want your assets distributed and names guardians for your minor children.
   
• Revocable Living Trust – Helps avoid probate, maintain privacy, and manage assets during incapacity.
   
• Power of Attorney – Appoints someone to manage your finances if you're unable to do so.
   
• Advance Healthcare Directive – Specifies your medical wishes and names someone to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.
   

Creating these documents ensures that you remain in control, your loved ones are protected, and your family is spared from avoidable legal stress.

As a solo attorney, I work directly with you—no middlemen or call centers—offering honest guidance and personalized service every step of the way.
