While the big issues (price, closing date, etc.) may be your focus, the devil is in the detail. Lawyers are the experts on detail. We provide comprehensive and timely services to ensure that your interests are protected and will work hard to ensure an on-time closing with no surprises.
The goal of estate planning is to plan in advance for possible mental incapacity and eventual death. It allows you to take control of these situations so that if and when they occur, your wishes will be respected, and will be carried out by people you trust. The planning process is simple, gives you a series of documents that will likely last for many years, and is far less expensive that leaving it to your loved ones to pick up the pieces later. Your plan will create certainty and minimize the potential for conflict later.
