I’m A Young Parent, How Should I Set Up My Life Insurance Policy?
Young families often don’t do estate planning and make simple mistakes that can prove costly down the road.
Attorney Kathryn Bedell, Esq. has served clients in southern Maine for more than 31 years, specializing in estate planning, wills, trusts, probate, elder law, and deed work.
We understand how important and personal matters of estate planning are to you and your family. We pride ourselves in serving every client with the highest possible standard, focusing on personalized service at a reasonable price. Our goal is to establish a long-term relationship with you as a trusted legal advisor through life’s highs, lows, and important milestones.
Elder Law refers to any and all types of law that affect our elderly population, the fastest growing segment of the Maine population.
Estate planning can entail drafting a will, power of attorney, advance health care directives, and trusts to protect and preserve your assets.
Probate is the process that appoints a personal representative (executor) to manage the distribution of your assets when you die.
A deed is a written document that when properly prepared, signed, and recorded at the Registry of Deeds conveys title to real estate.
There are many kinds of Trusts, but they fall in to two basic categories: Revocable and Irrevocable. Learn more about which type of trust will work for your family and situation.

Whether you have a will-based estate plan or trust-based one, choosing the right person who will be in charge of your assets when you are gone is sometimes a difficult decision.
