Estate Planning

Many people are reluctant to discuss estate planning, but proper preparation can ensure that one’s final wishes are respected, reduce potential tax liabilities and minimize the problems and stress survivors face. Estate planning is a simple process, but a surprising number of people fail to prepare even the most basic of wills and other legal documents.

Phillips & Millman’s attorneys guide clients through the estate-planning process from the initial preparation of documents to the disbursement of an estate’s assets. We’ve helped clients draft wills that quickly clear probate and have created trusts that protect assets and benefit heirs and philanthropic organizations. Phillips & Millman also helps clients prepare documents conferring medical, legal and business powers of attorney in the event that someone is incapacitated, as well as advance medical directives addressing the types of “heroic” life-extending treatments someone desires. In all of these instances, a small amount of preparation can yield tremendous results.
