Frequently Asked Questions

What should I bring to my first Estate Planning consultation?

Please bring any existing wills or trusts, a list of your major assets (property, investments, retirement accounts), and names and contact information for your proposed executors and beneficiaries. This ensures we can provide tailored advice immediately.

A Will outlines how your assets will be distributed after death and names guardians for minors, but it usually goes through probate. A Trust holds assets for your beneficiaries and generally avoids the public, time-consuming probate process, offering more privacy and control.

While our primary jurisdiction is domestic, we regularly collaborate with international counsel to address cross-border property transfers, foreign wills, and international inheritance issues for our clients.

The duration of probate varies significantly based on the complexity of the estate and court backlog. Simple, uncontested estates can take 6-12 months, while complicated or contested matters can last much longer. We work diligently to expedite the process.
