Our estate planning services

Our estate planning goals are aimed at capturing a holistic view of the wishes of our client and their estate situation, and then finding the best possible way to actualize their goals and address every issue which their estate may face during their lifetime and after death. To this end, we believe every proper estate plan to contain the following essential legal documents:

  • Last Will and Testament

Although sometimes very simple to create using will templates online, more complex estates definitely would need more than what a stereotyped template will provide. This is where our expertise comes in. The first thing we do is to grasp an understanding of the wishes of our client as well as the complexity of their estate before determining the right measures to distribute their estate without having conflicts in the future.

We will also help in naming a guardian for minors if the client has such.

  • Powers of attorney and advance healthcare directives

A power of attorney is a document which gives an agent the authority to act on behalf of the principal (the maker of the document) when the principal becomes unable to act on their own. On the other hand, advance healthcare directives does the same thing but in terms of healthcare decision-making.

During incapacity, a power of attorney and advance healthcare directive become very important as they enable the estate affairs of the principal to thrive on despite their incapacity. In Miami, FL, these documents are handled quite differently from other states. It becomes important that you hire an experienced attorney in Miami for legal guidance.

  • Trusts

Trusts allow you to transfer assets differently from a will while offering other probate and tax advantages. There are different kinds of trust and our Trust lawyers will advise you on the type that’s appropriate for you.

  • Probate

Our probate services include assisting Miami residents to plan for probate minimization. If this is not done, probate can become very lengthy, traumatic and expensive. We also assist executors and estate administrators with the following:

  • Filing the petition: probate commences when the will is filed to the probate court. There is paperwork involved, and your attorney will help with this.
  • Notifying the public: your attorney will work with you to notify every concerned party concerning probate. This is not always easy as it seems, as some persons may come falsely claiming to be relatives of the decedent.
  • Appraising the estate: our probate attorneys are proficient in estate appraisal, an important aspect of probate for valuable and complex estates.
  • Dealing with creditors and filing tax returns: people may claim to be creditors whereas they are not. In order not to give money to scammers, contact an attorney.
  • Will contests and estate litigation: disgruntled parties may also wish to litigate the estate or file for will contests. The probate attorney helps to resolve such issues amicably before they escalate or lengthen probate all the more.
  • Distributing and closing the estate: this is the last phase and involves a lot of legalities and paperwork.
