Wills, Trusts, & Estate Planning

Sorkin Law Group attorneys have extensive experience helping people plan for their future. Estate planning involves management of your property during your life and deciding its disposition after your death. Careful estate planning takes into account your real estate and personal property (including insurance), income, tax laws, family needs, philosophy, and wishes. It may involve the creation of a will, trusts, powers of attorney, and other legal documents. Good estate planning can preserve your assets, save taxes, and, in some cases, avoid probate.
If you have minor children, or children with special needs, you will want to make arrangements to make sure their needs are met. We can help you plan and set up trusts, guardianships, or conservatorships if appropriate.
During the process of planning their estate, many people like to take care of another inevitable aspect of aging - deciding about healthcare and end-of-life matters. What kinds of care do you want to receive if you are seriously ill, and who will make healthcare decisions for you if you are not able to make them yourself? We can help make sure your wishes are known to your loved ones, and that legal documents, such as a living will and/or health care power of attorney, are in place to secure your decisions.
