- Estate PlanningIn a sense, "succession planning" is to business what estate planning is to an individual. It is, put simply, planning for the future of your company. A well-drafted succession plan will foresee such contingencies as the death, disability or retirement of a key person in the company, and will provide a road map for the company to follow in the absence of that person.
- WillsFor the rest of us, the proper execution of a Last Will & Testament is crucial. Your will allows you to identify the persons to whom you wish to leave your property. It allows you to nominate a Personal Representative, who will be responsible to carry out your wishes. For those with young children, or a developmentally disabled child of any age, a will allows you to nominate the person or persons who will care for your children should something happen to you.
- TrustsPreparing an estate plan can seem daunting, and none of us enjoy contemplating our own death. Still, few efforts reap greater dividends in terms of saving your loved ones from stress and expense than a carefully prepared estate plan. Your estate plan involves more than your will or a living trust, though they are vital. We can give you answers to such questions as...
