Karin's Estate Planning Services
Wills and Trusts
From the initial information gathering stage to the creation of appropriate planning vehicles to the funding of trusts, Karin guides clients through every detail of their estate plan. She is also there to help families through the process of estate and trust administration when a loved one passes away.
Long Term Care Planning
When someone needs nursing home care, there are a lot of questions and concerns about cost of care and whether it is possible to protect assets, including the home. Karin and her team have the answers and will assist clients with the appropriate trusts to protect and preserve their hard earned savings.
Estate Tax Planning
The estate tax can be overwhelming and difficult to understand. With proper planning, both Federal and State estate tax can be substantially minimized or eliminated. Karin will explain the estate tax in plain English and determine how it will affect each client's situation.
Special Needs Planning
Particular attention is required when planning for a family member with special needs. Karin understands the complexities of this planning and offers peace of mind through comprehensive, compassionate, and expert legal guidance.
