“Ensuring Simplicity for the Ones You Love”

Among the least favorite subjects for people to think about are our own mortality and human frailties, although we know intuitively that death or disability may befall any person at any time.  Any such event will be hard enough on our families and other loved ones.  Why make it even more difficult by failing to plan for these events? 

Of all the many things you have done or will do for yourself and your family, establishing a well-conceived estate plan is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones.  Proper estate planning not only puts you in charge of your finances during life, it can also spare your loved ones the expense, delay and frustration associated with managing your affairs if you become disabled, or the affairs of your estate upon your passage.

A well-crafted estate plan should provide for your loved ones in an effective and efficient manner by avoiding guardianship/conservatorship during your lifetime, probate at death, estate taxes and unnecessary delays.  Once your estate plan is in place, you will have peace of mind knowing that you have provided for yourself and your family, whatever the future may hold.

At Webb & Schtul, we bring competence, coupled with compassion, to the process of simplifying this important aspect of your family’s life, happiness and security.  We seek to understand your needs, and we master the legal tools necessary to construct an appropriate plan to provide for your incapacity, avoid probate of your assets, provide for your minor children, minimize or avoid estate taxes or even plan for gifting to your favorite charitable organizations.
