Trusts and Estates

• Estate Planning
  When putting together an estate plan for your family, one of the most important decisions you will make is who will inherit your legacy.  Once you decide who, the goal of an estate planning attorney is to protect the inheritance from others that you have not selected to inherit under your estate plan, for example – creditors, IRS, government healthcare agencies, ex-spouses, spendthrifts, or bankruptcy.  The best way to protect your legacy is to set up continuing lifetime trusts for your beneficiaries.  Often times the beneficiaries that are listed are your children but continuing lifetime trusts are not limited to just children or even just family; continuing lifetime trusts can be created for any individual that you want to inherit your legacy.
• Wills
  Our goal is for you to have a deep understanding of your plan and how to implement and maintain it. Once your plan is in place, we encourage periodic reviews as laws are updated, and as your life situation changes.
• Trusts
  Wills, and even Living Trusts that call for “outright” distributions, are generally deficient when it comes to protecting assets for your children.  When you say that “everything will be split equally between my son and daughter”, but don’t leave it in trust for them, each of them will inherit 50% in a lump sum, without any legal protections or direction.  Consider these scenarios...

• Probate

Finance Law

• Bankruptcy
• Foreclosure
• Tax Law
  RMZ’s attorneys represent trustees, personal representatives, guardians, charitable organizations, family businesses, fiduciaries, and beneficiaries in a full range of estate, trust, and fiduciary matters.  Probate and Trust administration has been a practice area for RMZ since the beginning of its existence and our attorneys are experienced in handling such matters. Our team recognizes that not all probate, trust and fiduciary matters are harmonious and at times result in disputes. Our attorneys have extensive experience handling complex and sophisticated estate, trust and tax issues in state and federal courts.  When a conflict arises over a will or trust, our Probate and Trust litigation attorneys work to resolve the dispute outside the courtroom, whenever possible.  However, when litigation is unavoidable, our experienced trial lawyers aggressively advocate to protect our client’s interest.
