Estate Planning

Estate Planning Attorney In St. Paul

Having a thoroughly prepared estate plan brings peace of mind. Estate planning is not just a will, but also includes documents that state your preferences for your own end of life care. There are also tools that protect your assets while you are still alive and will control how they are distributed once you pass. An estate plan will provide you and your loved ones with the plan that needs to be followed in your final days and afterwards. 

‍If you need help with your estate planning, then our legal team is ready to help. When working with our law firm, you will have an experienced attorney who is easily accessible, patient, tech savvy and efficient so that you can save on attorney costs. We offer free consultations to help you determine what your next steps need to be.

Our Estate Planning Services

  • Wills & Trusts: Having a Will or establishing a Trust is very important if you have the intention of passing on your wealth or assets you have accumulated to the next generation of family members. If you need help with a Last Will & Testament or a Revocable Living Trust, our team is here to help.

  • Power of Attorneys: Power of Attorneys allow people to name a trusted friend or a family member to manage their finances or make critical health related decisions if you are incapacitated. Whether you need a Durable Power of Attorney, Financial Power of Attorney or Medical Power of Attorney, our legal team is ready to help.

  • Gifts of Personal Property: Not all assets need to be defined in your Last Will. You can provide gifts of personal property in a separate document as long as it abides by Minnesota’s probate code. 

  • Guardianships: When dealing with a Guardianship scenario, you will need help with nominating a Guardian. Our legal team will help with the proper paperwork to make sure that nomination is completed legally.

  • Deed Services: There are different types of deeds that allow for real estate to be transferred outside of the probate process. Each type of deed operates differently and we can help identify which one makes the most sense for your estate.

  • HIPAA Authorization: Having a Hipaa Authorization in your estate plan will be important for medical professionals to share your health information with a 3rd party without violating Hipaa regulations. Our legal team will help you with drafting this document.

  • Remembrance & Serves: In your estate plan, you can mention your final wishes in regards to your funeral and final disposition. Our legal team will help develop this plan with you.
