Estate Planning Assistance in Geneva

It is not always easy to contemplate what will happen to your family and your assets after you are gone, but answering the hard questions now will make sure that your wishes are known and respected when the time comes. There are many important aspects of a comprehensive estate plan including:

• Wills;
• Trusts;
• Powers of Attorney;
• Guardianships;
• Living Wills; and
• Family Limited Partnerships.

Wills and trusts allow you to determine who will inherit your assets and who will be in charge of managing your estate. Powers of attorney are used to provide decision-making authority to someone you trust when you are incapacitated and cannot make important decisions for yourself. Guardianships are established to care for dependent loved ones including minors and disabled adults. All of these pieces work together to ensure that your loved ones and your wishes are protected no matter what the future brings.
