- Prepare and revise wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and related legal documents with accuracy and attention to client intent.
- Advise clients on approaches that help preserve wealth, reduce tax exposure, and support orderly transfer of assets.
- Review existing estate plans and recommend updates when life events, financial changes, or legal developments affect prior documents.
- Explain estate planning, trust administration, and probate issues in clear terms so clients can make informed decisions.
- Coordinate with accountants, financial advisors, and other professionals to align legal planning with broader financial goals.
- Represent clients in probate proceedings and related court matters when estate administration requires formal legal action.
