Trust and Estate Planning Law

Trust and estate planning law involves arranging for the management and distribution of an individual’s assets after their death. This includes creating wills, setting up trusts, and designating beneficiaries to ensure that one's wishes are honored and that assets are transferred smoothly to heirs. Trusts can help manage assets during one’s lifetime and avoid probate, while wills provide instructions for asset distribution. Effective planning can minimize taxes and legal complications, ensuring that loved ones receive their intended inheritance while also considering potential care needs during the planner’s lifetime.
