Estate Planning and Trust

At the end of a life, and sometimes during the course of a life, people need to take care of a another person's business. Many people actually own more valuable property than they think they do.

Many people believe that their family members or friends know exactly what the person wants to have done in the event of disabling disease or death. Some people chose inappropriate people to handle their affairs in the case of disablement or death. Some people fail to state, in writing, what their wishes are regarding medical emergencies and last hospital stays. And finally, people argue over the disposition of a deceased loved one's property. Since the estate must bear the costs of litigation, the estate is sometimes greatly diminished by the processes of determining the wishes of the property owner.

McDonough Law is committed to writing documents that help the property owner to avoid many of the pitfalls mentioned above.
