Our estate lawyers

Our estate planning lawyers see each client as a unique person. They will sit down with you, listen, and work closely with you to determine what the most appropriate tools and strategies are given your needs, wants, and circumstances. To care for your needs during life, we prepare living wills and durable powers of attorney that address life situations and financial issues if an illness or injury leaves you incapacitated, without the need to resort to the court system.

Upon death, our goal is to ensure that as much of our clients’ wealth and assets as possible reach their intended beneficiaries (spouses, heirs, other loved ones, or charities) while minimizing or eliminating federal and state inheritance and estate taxes. This is true regardless of the size of the estate.

Tax-related Estate Planning

Our estate planning clients also benefit tremendously from the experience we have with estate-related tax concerns and the ability we have to properly assess, choose, and implement the right types of tax strategies and techniques given their circumstances. Our estate planning staff includes attorneys with advanced degrees, L.L.M.s in taxation, and as a firm, we are committed to keeping our skills sharp so that as laws change, we are ready to devise new strategies and techniques that take advantage of opportunities as they arise.

Tax-related estate planning tools we use to our clients' advantages include:

    • Grantor annuity trusts

    • Self-canceling installment notes

    • Planning with and for qualified and non-qualified retirement plans, IRAs,, and Roth IRAs
