Estate Planning and 遗嘱认证 Services We Provide
Our lawyers routinely review and prepare a variety of estate planning tools for our clients.
遗嘱: 遗嘱 govern the distribution of your assets after you pass away. When an individual dies without a will (known as dying intestate), the estate is distributed by the rules of intestacy established by Florida statutes.
信托基金: A trust is an instrument that contains assets managed for the benefit of a beneficiary. 信托基金 serve a variety of purposes, including sheltering assets from probate, providing for children with special needs and providing control over the distribution of the money in the trust.
Guardianships: A guardianship allows for one individual to make health care and financial determinations for another person. This can apply to children or to adults who are no longer able to take care of themselves.
Power of attorney: This is a legal document granting another person the authority to act on behalf of someone else. This can include making determinations regarding finances, health care and other important matters.
遗嘱认证 representation: The probate process concerns the distribution of estate assets in accordance with the law. While certain estate planning tools can prevent certain assets from going through the probate process, there are many instances when probate representation is essential in settling controversies.
As attention to detail and deadlines is of utmost importance concerning such services, the attorneys at Reed Law will prepare all tools regarding this area of law carefully while making certain that all processes go smoothly.
What An Estate Plan Can Do For You
Regardless of the size or complexity of your estate, an estate plan can identify the family members and other loved ones you wish to receive your property after your death. It ensures a seamless transfer of your property in accordance with your specifications. Finally, it can avoid or reduce the time and costs associated with the probate process.
In an estate plan, you can dictate the kinds of life-prolonging care you wish to receive. You can also state the kind of funeral arrangements you would like and make determinations regarding the payment of such expenses.
