Wills are a vital component of your personal and business assets, demanding careful planning and deliberation. Our team is prepared to assist and advise you in the formulation of your Will, determining the responsible party for your Estate (Executor) and the receivers of your assets (Beneficiaries), particularly considering circumstances like blended families, children with disabilities, and life changes.

Creating a Will is very important to make sure that all your loved ones are taken care of and that all your assets are disbursed in accordance with your wishes upon your passing.

Although creating a Will can be intimidating, our team can navigate you through every step to decrease the chance of someone contesting your Will. Wills are usually disputed if a family member feels they were neglected or not sufficiently considered. Other sorts of disputes can emerge from perceived lack of capacity, undue influence, or violation of trust.

Medical Treatment Decision

Every person possesses the right to make decisions about their own medical treatment. However, if you become incapable of making decisions, either on a temporary or permanent basis, you can opt to assign a representative who can make medical decisions on your behalf. The act of designating someone for this responsibility can be quite strenuous, but our team is here to help and guide you in deciding who and when you should nominate a trusted person to take on your medical decisions.

Advanced Care Directive

This is a legally enforceable document that allows you to articulate clear plans for your future health, care, and end of life issues. This document encapsulates your decisions and desires for medical treatment, and it specifies the medical treatment you want and do not want in emergency situations. You should involve your doctor when filling out an Advance Care Directive document.
