How A Basic Estate Plan Can Protect You And Your Family
Virtually every family stands to benefit from a basic estate plan. A last will and testament can specify the disposition of your assets when you’re gone. Durable powers of attorney allow you to name the people you’ll trust with your financial and medical treatment decisions if you’re unable to handle them yourself. A living will defines the circumstances under which further medical treatment or life support should be terminated in case of the most serious injuries or illnesses.
Trust And Estate Administration For Local And Out-Of-State Clients
Our estate planning lawyers also advise clients about the full range of trust instruments available to meet many different personal, financial or charitable goals. Let us help you reduce exposure to taxation, address the future security of a vulnerable family member, plan for a management transition in a family business, protect your eligibility for Medicaid or set aside part of your estate for charity. We also assist clients who seek guardianship of a loved one.
Many Rhode Island residents depend on our attorneys to advise them about the probate of wills, the administration of trusts, and the duties of an executor or personal representative in probate court. Our familiarity with Rhode Island probate procedures can demystify the estate administration process and help steer you clear of the mistakes that can run up expenses, delay distribution of assets and even expose you to liability.
