As an estate planning attorney in the Castle Rock, Colorado area, I can help your family or business with a wide range of legal matters. My firm is different in that it was built with the needs of growing families, and growing businesses, in mind. As a parent or business owner (or both!), we understand your are BUSY. Yet you want to know you've made the best decisions for your family or business.
You want to make sure your family and children will be taken care of and will be prepared to receive your wealth, both financial and intangible, if anything happens to you. You also value ease, convenience and efficiency. That is my firm's focus as well. We've developed unique systems so you can have the guidance you need to build and maintain a life of prosperity and wealth.
We encourage communication with our clients. In fact, for the majority of matters, we bill on a flat-fee basis, agreed to in advance, so there are never any surprise expenses. We want our clients to never be afraid to call with a quick question.

Unfortunately, most individuals and couples have not yet done any estate planning.
People postpone this important planning for a variety of reasons including avoiding having to discuss the difficult subjects of death and incapacity and believing that there will be a "better time" down the road for estate planning.
Many people tell themselves that they will do this planning when they are "wealthy enough" or the kids are grown.
Too often estate planning is not done and the results are devastating - both financially and emotionally.

Probate is the legal process that distributes a decedent's property after death.
Whether or not someone had a will, the probate process is necessary if someone died owning property in his or her individual name.
Estate administration involves all property owned by a decedent, whether probate assets or non-probate assets.
This process involves such things as ensuring real property is correctly titled after the death of one or more joint owners, life insurance proceeds or retirement benefits are passed on to the correct beneficiaries and testamentary trusts are funded.
