Estate Planning Attorney Oklahoma City

Let Us Help You Create Your Estate Planning Documents

We can help you with a variety of legal documents that assist with your estate planning needs. Typical materials that your estate may require could include:

Wills — This document can be both simple and complex, depending on your assets and family. Wills are important when it comes to deciding how to distribute the things you have worked so hard for. After all, who would you want to inherit anything from? It is also important that any children involved are entitled to any amount of money or possessions they may deserve.

Trusts — A trust can be created for nearly anything, but in general it is used to keep your assets safe from any impending lawsuits. You decide who gets what, and how much of it they get; you also decide when they may have access to its value.

Powers of attorney — These are used to give someone access to your assets if you are unable to. This is especially important in the case that you may be incapacitated due to an illness, accident, or even old age. When it comes time for your family to take care of things when you can't, your power of attorney will make sure it goes smoothly and efficiently.

Advance directives — These documents can help you decide what kind of care you want to receive if you are incapacitated. Should a feeding tube be necessary? Do you want any extraordinary measures taken to prolong your life, or do you simply wish for comfort care? Think about these things before it is too late.

Asset protection and business succession — These documents can go a long way in helping to protect your assets from any lawsuits. You may also want to set up some sort of business succession plan in case you are not able to run it, or the owner is no longer in need of its use.
