    If you were to suddenly pass away,

    how would your family survive financially?

    It’s not something that we like to think about, but a poorly structured estate could leave your assets (and by association, your loved ones and dependents) tied up in legal red tape in the event of your death.

    ESTATE PLANNING BASICS

    What is Estate Planning?


    Simply put, estate planning is the process of planning ahead for your death or disability.  It includes instructions for who is to receive your property after you pass away, what they will receive, as well as when they will receive it. Good estate planning also takes into account the possibility that you will become seriously ill or injured and will need someone else to manage your affairs.  Regardless of the circumstances, the goal of estate planning is to make it as easy as possible on your family to deal with your death, injury, or illness.

    WILLS . TRUSTS . POWER OF ATTORNEY

    What does Estate Planning Include?


    The first document in every estate plan is the Last Will and Testament. This is the legal document that controls how your property is distributed. It can also be used to nominate a guardian for your minor children, if you have any. An estate plan should also include a financial power of attorney and a healthcare power of attorney. These are documents that appoint someone to make financial and medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable. Many estate plans also include a living trust, which we generally recommend if you own real estate, have multiple beneficiaries, or you want to prevent your heirs from squandering their inheritance.

    FLAT FEE PRICING

    How much does Estate Planning Cost?


    The cost of estate planning depends on the complexity of your estate. At Davis Law Group, we generally charge a flat fee for estate planning services. We believe this is the best pricing model because it allows you, the consumer, to budget and plan accordingly for payment of your attorney’s fees. Hourly rates, on the other hand, can lead to unexpected bills that are far more than originally estimated. With a flat rate, the risk of going over the original estimate is on the attorney — not you.
