conservatorships and guardianships
Has aging or a disability affected your loved one’s ability to care for themselves? Conservatorships and guardianships can give you the authority to manage someone’s care and finances when they are unable to.
estate
planning
Wills, trusts, power of attorney and other estate planning tools can help you plan ahead to ensure your assets are handled the way you intend them to be in life and afterwards.
Wills &
Trusts
With a will or trust in place, you decide how your property is managed and distributed after your death.
Power of
Attorney
If you become seriously ill, injured or disabled and need someone to help manage your affairs, having a power of attorney document created in advance can avoid the more severe solution of needing a conservator or guardian appointed by a court. It’s possible to limit the power to certain decisions you specify in the document. Collin can assist you in assigning an agent and enacting power of attorney that fits your level of comfort.
Probate
Administration
Probate is the legal process that takes place with the court after someone’s death and its main purpose is to transfer ownership of your assets when they do not transfer automatically by operation of law or by the designation of a beneficiary. However, probates also make sure that all your assets are identified and distributed as you requested in your estate planning documents.
