Estate Planning

About 60% of Americans have no will. It is not that they do not care — it is that nobody made it simple. We do.

Why it matters

Probate is slow, public, and avoidable.

When someone dies without arrangements, state law usually routes everything through the courts. Bills, property, accounts — all of it, for months, at your family’s expense. Smart planning keeps your heirs out of that room entirely.

Nobody enjoys this conversation. But a few documents, prepared with someone who does this all day, protect what you spent a working life building.

How we help

Where families usually start.

You do not have to sort out everything at once. Pick the piece that has been nagging at you.

1

The documents most people need

For about 95% of families it comes down to a will, powers of attorney, a living will, and sometimes a living trust. Our alliance partners have built more than 15,000 estate plans over twenty-five years.

2

Trust and estate returns

We prepare trust returns and the related federal forms, so the tax side is handled by the same people who know the plan.

3

Giving while you are here

Gifting and charitable strategies that move assets on your terms, at a pace that keeps your own plan intact.

4

A second look at an old plan

Plans go stale. Beneficiaries change, laws change. We review what you have and coordinate with your attorney and advisor.
