Will-Based Estate Planning Attorneys
With combined experience, we are dedicated to preserving your wealth and meeting your personal and financial objectives. We can advise you on the benefits and limitations of wills. Wills are legal documents which can meet the needs of individuals or couples with relatively modest and uncomplicated estates. Wills permit you to:
- Specify how your property is to be distributed upon your death,
- Nominate a guardian for your minor children,
- Appoint a person or institution to serve as executor of your estate,
- Provide the executor with various administrative powers, and
- Provide for testamentary trusts for young children.
To discuss how we can assist you, please call us at 804.332.6247 or complete our brief Client Inquiry Form.
Important Note: Your Attorney may recommend Trust-Based Estate Planning strategies for anyone with relatively more assets or complex circumstances.
