Wills & Powers of Attorney

If you do not have a will and powers of attorney, you probably should - if you do have a will and powers of attorney, you should review them periodically to make sure they still reflect your wishes.

We are pleased to offer experienced representation in the preparation of wills and powers of attorney, in limited circumstances and as an adjunct to our real estate practice.

Wills and powers of attorney can be simple, moderately complex, or very complex. For many moderately complex and most very complex wills and powers of attorney, we will refer our clients to local lawyers who specialize in preparing documents of such complexity.

The preparation of wills and powers of attorney is usually a three step process. The first step is an initial interview with your lawyer in which information is collected, options are discussed, and instructions provided. After clients provide any additional requested information, the second step involves the preparation and mailing of draft documents to the client for review and comment. Once the client has reviewed the draft and provided instructions for changes, the third step involves a meeting between the clients and lawyer to review and execute the final draft of the documents.
