Estate Planning

Sound estate planning involves the creation of a collection of documents and instructions engineered to provide solutions for possible problems that may arise during life and after death. Planning ahead enables you to plan for the unexpected and remedy problems before they occur. Properly constructed estate plans also provide for future needs of surviving family members, determine who will manage your affairs when you are unable to do so, and keep your assets from passing according to the North Carolina intestate succession statute.

Midtown Law’s estate planning services include, but are not limited to, the following:

Wills
Testamentary Trusts
Revocable Living Trusts
Durable General Powers of Attorney
Healthcare Powers of Attorney
Advanced Directives (Living Wills)

We believe that estate planning should be customized to meet your specific needs and desires, as there is no universal plan available to meet the needs of all. Throughout the process, our planning team works closely with you to ensure that the finished product is specifically tailored for you.

Once your estate plan is established, it is very important to make sure that your documents remain up to date. We understand that major life events happen, whether it is a family growing, moving to a new state, acquiring or disposing of property, or any number of significant changes. If you have experienced any of these events, it may be a good time to review your existing documents to ensure that your needs and desires are still being met.
