Areas Of Estate Planning Our Team Can Aid You In

Oftentimes, we don’t consider the nuances of what goes into estate planning until we are faced with doing it for ourselves or a loved one. There are many aspects to take into account concerning minimizing tax liability, setting up a trust that aligns with your unique goals, or simply executing a will. In addition to these services, we can assist you with the following:

  • Suggesting Routes For Digital Assets. When we hear digital assets, we may only think of cryptocurrency. However, digital assets can include social media accounts, domain names, digital art, and credit card accounts. Because of the immediacy of creating a digital account, it can be especially difficult to track them down and manage them for someone else. Implementing a sound strategy to oversee digital assets can make a huge difference in the estate planning process.
  • Considering Options For Incapacitation Or Disability. Though it’s not something many of us want to think about, being realistic about the challenges we may face as we age can put us ahead of the game in terms of preparation and expectations. The importance of putting a power of attorney and advance directive in place will allow you to communicate your wishes regarding end-of-life decisions, healthcare treatment, and other legal and financial concerns.  Having an appropriate power of attorney in place will also prevent costly court proceeds for guardianship.

It is our mission to create client relationships that last a lifetime and are able to shift as your circumstances do. Our East Greenwich probate lawyer is committed to tailoring their approach to your individual needs and gracefully receiving any feedback you may have.
