Services
Wills
Report
A Last Will and Testament is a legal document that specifically declares how you want your assets distributed after your death. If you die without a Will, then state law determines how your assets will be distributed and the result may not be what you would have chosen. At Crews Law, we will take through the process of creating a legally binding will that distributes your assets to beneficiaries YOU choose.
Trusts
Report
Just like a Will, a Trust allows you to name your beneficiaries, guardians for children, and to set limitations on your children's access to assets. The big difference between a Will and a Trust is the avoidance of probate. The probate process can be stressful, expensive and time-consuming. With a well-planned trust, you can avoid probate and pass your assets directly to your beneficiaries.
Probate
Report
Probate is the process of gathering your assets, paying your last bills and expenses, and distributing the assets to your beneficiaries. Many people think having a Will avoids probate, but that is not true. If you have a valid Will, the probate court will follow it in determining who gets your property, but the probate process is still required if you own property in your own name when you die.
Guardianship/conservatorship
Report
You may be familiar with guardians for children, and guardians in estate planning law are similar. A Guardian takes care of an adult who can no longer take care of themselves due to incapacitation or physical impairment. As people age, they can become infirm, develop dementia, or suffer injuries that prevent them from caring for themselves.
Powers Of Attorney
Report
A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document whereby you can appoint someone to manage your financial affairs if you become unable to do so. Your "attorney-in-fact" will have the power to write checks, discuss accounts, request IRA distributions, and many other financial transactions on your behalf.
