It's easy to plan for what you want to happen but true peace of mind comes from knowing your plan will prevent what you don't want to happen. I became an estate planning attorney at the age of 40 because I've been where you are-wanting to protect my family. When a recommended attorney created my wife's and my first plan, like most estate plans, it would not have protected our loved ones if anything went wrong in their lives after we passed away.
And we were unaware of the potential vulnerability-we didn't know what we didn't know. Now I know better and am determined to ensure our clients have a plan that works as they intend even if life throws a curve ball. Our team includes a former ALTCS employee, a Veteran, and other field experts. You don't know what will happen to your loved ones after you're gone but you can plan to protect against the curve balls that may come their way.
We can help. My wife and I had an amazing and wonderful experience while dealing with both David, and his assistant Meredith.

Joe and Allison retired to Tucson from the Midwest for our warmer weather.
They had two grown children and three grandchildren.
Though they had a trust created in their home state about ten years ago, Joe and Allison heard it would be prudent to have their trust reviewed in their new state.
However, since their beneficiaries remained the same, they assumed the review would simply be a formality.
A friend recommended they contact our firm.

It's hard to lose a loved one.
Unfortunately, our laws can make the process of transferring property from the deceased to the rightful owners difficult.
If there is no dispute or contest among heirs and beneficiaries, we can help you administer your loved one's estate and help you transfer the deceased's property accordingly.
Administering an estate often requires a probate, which is the process of gathering the deceased's assets, paying off the deceased's creditors, and transferring any remaining assets according to the deceased's Will or Arizona law (if the deceased did not have a will).

Mary's mother passed away recently.
Her mother had a trust that left Mary in charge.
She felt a burden to follow the trust and keep the family peace-as her mother had wanted.
Mary wasn't sure what to do and felt overwhelmed.
She couldn't access certain accounts and needed to sell her parent's home.
She was worried and unsure about taxes and didn't want to see most of her mother's estate disappear in legal fees.
Her financial advisor suggested she call us for help.
She liked how we would guide her through the process and how we gave her the confidence that she could administer the trust professionally, fairly and transparently, avoiding conflict with her siblings.
