Carroll Park Estate Planning Lawyer
Protect Your Estate
The purpose of an estate plan is to guarantee that your personal wishes and preferences are carried out if you’re incapacitated or pass away. A complete estate plan typically involves a will, a living will, a trust, and durable power of attorney documents. When you pass away, these legal documents act as directives for the court to follow when appraising and distributing your assets. With successful planning, your family can avoid costly estate taxes and probate court.
Estate planning allows you to dictate:
- How your property and assets will be distributed
- Who will act as guardian of your children or relatives with special needs
- Who handles your finances if you’re incapacitated
- Who has control over your medical care if you’re incapacitated
At Sallen Law, our estate planning lawyer drafts each essential legal document and ensures they are valid per state law. Estate planning can be very difficult for the inexperienced, and the last thing you want is for an error to impact your family.
If you’re ready to begin drafting your estate plan, contact our Carroll Park estate planning attorney at (215) 992-9662.
