Most of us don't really like to think about the idea of our own death despite the fact that it is an inevitable part of life. But waiting too long to plan for what happens when we are no longer here, or when we no longer have the legal capacity to make certain decisions, can have serious consequences for our loved ones, as well as create unnecessary disputes, confusion and financial burdens.

This is why planning ahead is so important. Estate planning gives you control over how your property, everything you have worked for, passes upon your death. Estate planning gives YOU the ability to decide exactly who will inherit your property, how much they will get, and when they will get it. But planning your estate is not only about planning for what happens at death. It also involves planning for what happens if you become incapacitated.

Our estate planning process begins with a detailed analysis of your estate, assets and wishes as to how you want your property to pass on to your loved ones in the event of your incapacity or death. Depending on your individual situation, we will prepare revocable living trusts, a durable power of attorney, a power of attorney for asset management, an advance health care directive (medical power of attorney), and a variety of other estate planning documents.

The Law Offices of Michael V. Jehdian is committed to providing customized estate planning services so that each estate plan is tailored to suit the client's wishes, assets, family circumstances and personal planning objectives.

Above all, we strive to avoid the unnecessary costs and delays associated with the probate process, eliminate the need for court supervision following incapacitation or death, maximize confidentiality, minimize assessed estate taxes and better guarantee that each client maintains control over the estate he or she has created over a lifetime.
