Peace of Mind Today, a Legacy Tomorrow

Planning ahead for your family is a valuable gift you can give them today to make things easier for them tomorrow.  Having an estate plan will give you the peace of mind of knowing that you have a plan for those you love.

It is not uncommon for people to put off having wills prepared because they want to avoid unpleasant discussions about death, but most clients express a sense of relief once their estate plan is in place.

Attorney Richard Mills prepares Wills, Trusts, Durable Powers of Attorney, Patient Advocates, and Deeds, in addition to many other documents, so that your property is managed and distrubuted according to your wishes in the event of your incapacity or death.

Estate Planning can be about more than just the things you leave behind. It can also be about the values you pass to the next generation.  What will your legacy be?

Attorney & Counselor at Law 

If a loved one has recently passed away and your unsure what your next step is, Attorney Richard Mills and his staff can help to calm your fears about the probate process.

If you have entered a new stage in life and want to know if your current estate plan still fits your needs, or if you've just been putting off talking to a lawyer, but know you need to, Attorney Mills can meet with you to discuss an estate plan that fits your individual needs - as simple as possible, but sophisticated enough to get the job done. 

What is probate and why should I avoid it?  How do I decide who would raise my kids if I'm not around?  Why do people have trusts?  Should I add my kids to my property?  Will the state take my house when I die? What will happen to my property if I need to go to a nursing home? What should I do with the family cottage?  Who will take care of my pets?  Can I do anything to stop my kids from fighting over my property when I die?  These are common questions that we can address during our initial conference.
