Estate Planning
Estate planning can entail drafting a will, power of attorney, advance health care directives, and trusts to protect and preserve your assets.
Probate
Probate is the process that appoints a personal representative (executor) to manage the distribution of your assets when you die.
Real Estate
& Deed Preparation
A deed is a written document that when properly prepared, signed, and recorded at the Registry of Deeds conveys title to real estate.
Trusts
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.
