ESTATE PLANNING
Estate planning is often an apprehensive undertaking fraught with difficult decisions and the concept of confronting ones own mortality. We strive to ease that anxiety and to make estate planning as efficient and clear as possible and to support and advise you on making mature, sound and reasoned decisions. Planning for the future is a proactive way to ensure that you and your family are provided for in the future. Careful estate planning also makes certain that your family is clear on your wishes and promotes family harmony. At the Law Office of David A. Miller, PC, we help clients with estate planning including the creation of wills, trusts, health care proxies and powers of attorney.
We provide comprehensive advice about the various estate planning techniques and approaches that are available to minimize the tax burden on our clients' estates. For everyone, planning their estate includes a Will and depending on the client's goals and situation a revocable or irrevocable trust may be appropriate.
If you are a business owner, our firm can also help you with the succession of planning and the beneficiaries of your business and assets. We also assist clients who are in second marriages regarding amendments to Wills and issues concerning children from other marriages.
We recommend our clients to have a power of attorney, health care proxy and living will and when appropriate a directive as to remains and a Homestead Declaration. These documents are often essential to preventing the need for Court involvement in the event of temporary or long-term incapacity and they can provide significant savings in legal time and cost in the future.
