We’re happy to serve residents of Lake Havasu, AZ; Bullhead City, AZ; Kingman, AZ; and the surrounding areas. We look forward to providing you with stellar customer service during this difficult time. Read on to learn more about the process of connecting with us and getting started.
The first step is the appointment of the estate's personal representative by the probate court. If there is a will, it should name an executor; otherwise, an administrator will be chosen by the court.
The personal representative must then give notice of his or her appointment and where and when the estate's creditors may file claims, take an inventory of the estate, appraise the property, distribute the property and close the estate.
We will guide you through each step of probate in Arizona, Nevada or California. Contact us to get skilled legal assistance.
Estate planning is the process of drafting legal documents designed to successfully implement your last wishes. Estate planning services we provide include:
Your will is your most basic estate planning tool. It sets out your wishes regarding how your property should be distributed, appoints an executor to implement those wishes and names guardians for your minor children.
By placing a portion of your estate in a trust, you can avoid the expenses and delays of probate, passing your property to your chosen recipients through a private process.
There are a number of good reasons why you may want, in your will, to give a chosen trustee the authority to manage your property in the interests of an heir.
Your living will sets out your wishes regarding life-saving medical treatment.
By granting a trusted person a power of attorney over your financial or personal affairs, you gain protection in case you lose the capacity to make these decisions for yourself.
We offer our services in these areas so you can have access to an effective and comprehensive estate plan.
