Wills & Estate Planning

Estate planning is a must. Too often, people believe estate planning is only for the wealthy and that it’s only purpose is to avoid taxes. This is a bit of a misnomer because everyone can benefit from a good estate plan. While proper planning can minimize the tax burden your beneficiaries will face, it also helps ensure your final wishes are carried out and it provides your family with a degree of certainty and assurance during the very difficult time following the death of a loved one. We can help provide you with peace of mind; knowing your beneficiaries will not be burdened with unnecessary taxes. More importantly, we can help avoid inter-family problems in the wake of your passing by making sure that your final wishes are set forth as fully and clearly as possible in your estate documents. We do this by taking the time to sit with you to review your financial situation and understand your specific wishes and goals, so that we can create a customized estate plan that accomplishes your intentions.

We can help with many legal documents including powers of attorney, health care directives, wills, trusts, and other documents which can ensure your wishes are being fulfilled. Attorney Lehutsky understands that no two situations are identical. We understand your estate plan must be tailored to ensure your wishes are carried out.
