The definition of "Perfect Estate Planning" is when the check for one's funeral bounces. Most people never achieve perfection. That's where estate planning comes in. As a Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law and a sole practitioner for 40 years, I focus primarily on the preparation of wills/trusts/other docs for people with significant accumulated net worth. Under our current tax system, most planning for my clients involves the avoidance of probate and the reduction in post-death income, estate and generation skipping taxes. A fair part of my practice is devoted to post-mortem uncontested probates and trust administration representing both Executors/Trustees and Beneficiaries. There is also a portion of my practice that focuses on individuals who have unfortunately found themselves without the necessary documentation in place and facing hospitalization or imminent death. Remember, "If you're near death, I'm nearby.!(TM)" WHEN SHOULD YOU CALL ME? Call me when you get married, have a child, buy a home, start a business, get divorced, lose a loved one, or inherit assets. Major life changes impact your estate—make sure your plan keeps up.
