Common first questions

Get clear answers before you schedule your consultation.

Do I really need an estate plan?

A thoughtful estate plan helps your loved ones understand your wishes, manage decisions during incapacity, and reduce uncertainty if something unexpected happens.

What is the difference between a will and a trust?

A will directs what should happen after death and may still go through probate. A trust can help organize assets during life and may support probate-avoidance planning when properly funded.

Who will meet with me?

Your planning conversations are attorney-led, giving you direct guidance as your documents are developed, reviewed, and signed.

When should I update my plan?

Major life changes, a move to Florida, new family circumstances, retirement planning, illness, or changes in assets are all good reasons to review your plan.
