Lee's Summit, Missouri, Estate Planning Lawyer
At the law firm of Leslie L. Lawson, I provide clients with tailored and comprehensive estate planning. I take the time to get to know my clients, allowing me to better recommend effective methods of protecting their assets, property and legacy for future generations and loved ones. Below are some of the areas of estate planning in which I provide representation and guidance:
- Wills
A will is basically a set of instructions for the distribution of your assets upon your death. The only way to ensure that those assets are dispersed according to your wishes is to have a will. At our office, we are dedicated to helping you analyze your estate and assets to determine the best way in which to construct your will.
- Trusts
There are many different types of trusts that are designed to achieve a variety of different goals. By taking the time to assess your goals for the assets that will be funding the trust and your specific financial situation, we can effectively determine the best type of trust for you.
- Durable Powers of Attorney
There are many different situations in which a durable power of attorney may be beneficial. By appointing a family member or close friend as your durable power of attorney, you are giving them the power to make decisions about your financial and health matters in the event you cannot communicate your wishes or make decisions on your own.
- Guardianship
When facing the issue of a guardianship, many emotions are tied into the legal struggles that may ensue. However, the individuals involved are usually proceeding and seeking the guardianship in order to preserve the best interests of an incapacitated adult or child.
To discuss your specific situation and options for estate planning, contact me at the law office of Leslie L. Lawson today. I can meet with you during one of my flexible appointment times, which includes weekend and evening availability.
Credit cards accepted.
