Experienced legal guidance for all estate planning matters.


A well-constructed estate plan enables you to lessen the burden on your loved ones and provide for their needs after you’re gone.

Our qualified legal team can assist with:

  • Wills — Our estate planning attorneys will help you draft a valid and effective will that formalizes your intentions for the distribution of your assets and names an appropriate executor to carry out your instructions. We also help clients change wills when circumstances, relationships or priorities change.


  • Trusts — Any property you choose to transfer into a living trust will not be transferred through probate upon your death. Our firm can help you create a variety of different types of trusts, including revocable living trusts, charitable trusts and special needs trusts.


  • Powers of attorney and living wills — Many of our clients are interested in drafting powers of attorney, living wills, and other advance health care directives that can be invoked if they cannot communicate on important matters due to some type of incapacity. These documents can provide you with peace of mind knowing your health care and financial decisions will be honored in the future.


  • Guardianships — Parents of minor or disabled children have vital concerns when it comes to formalized care arrangements after they are gone. We work closely with clients to develop suitable guardianship instructions that clearly outline parents’ preferences for custody, care and other matters.


  • Probate — Our firm helps with the transfer of property after death without undue delay. We can facilitate Date of Death Affidavits and provide probate support when needed to ensure that all necessary duties are completed. 


Estate planning and administration can be complicated and even stressful for some people. Our firm works diligently to make this process more understandable and less intimidating. Give us a call today to schedule an appointment with one of our experienced Valparaiso estate planning attorneys.
