Estate Planning
At Peters and Krown, our experienced estate planning attorneys are dedicated to helping our clients protect their assets and plan for the future. We understand that every client has unique needs and goals, and we work closely with each individual to develop a comprehensive estate plan that reflects their wishes and meets their specific needs.
Our Estate Planning Practice
Our estate planning practice includes a wide range of services to help our clients achieve their estate planning goals. Whether you are just starting to think about estate planning or need to update an existing plan, we can provide guidance and support every step of the way. Our services include:
- Wills: A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets will be distributed through probate after your passing. Our attorneys can help you create a valid will that reflects your wishes and ensures that your assets are distributed according to your wishes.
- Trusts: Trusts can provide several benefits, including avoiding probate court, maintaining privacy, planning for incapacity, and providing asset protection. We can help you create a trust that meets your unique needs and goals, whether it's a revocable trust, irrevocable trust, or a special needs trust for special needs beneficiaries.
- Powers of Attorney: A power of attorney allows you to appoint someone to make financial or medical decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Our attorneys can help you create power of attorney documents that reflect your wishes and ensure that your interests are protected.
- Healthcare Directives: A healthcare directive, also known as a living will, outlines your wishes for end-of-life medical care if you become incapacitated. We can help you create a healthcare directive that reflects your values and beliefs and ensures that your wishes are carried out.
Specialized Services
We understand that estate planning often involves more than just creating a basic will or trust. That's why we offer a range of additional, specialized services to help our clients achieve their unique estate planning goals. These services include asset protection, estate tax planning, business succession planning, special needs planning, charitable planning, planning for blended families, pet trust planning, planning for digital assets, and more. By offering these additional services, we can provide our clients with a comprehensive estate planning experience that meets their unique needs and goals.
We offer estate planning packages at fair and transparent flat rates to provide our clients with confidence and predictability when it comes to legal fees. We understand that estate planning can be a complex and intimidating process, which is why we offer flat-rate packages to provide our clients with a clear understanding of the costs involved. Our estate planning packages include a comprehensive set of legal documents tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. By offering flat-rate packages, we can help our clients avoid surprises and ensure that they receive high-quality legal services without watching the clock.
Our flat rates depend on the document package being requested, the details of the client's estate, and the complexity of the estate planning required to achieve the client's wishes. At your free initial consultation with our attorneys, they will explain the package options and provide recommendations for your specific circumstances, so you can choose the plan that best fits your needs and wishes. The attorneys will then quote you a transparent flat rate for all the work required to create your estate plan.
