We protect. We plan. We produce.

Estate Planning: We want to help people of all ages ensure that their estates are protected during life, and after death to preserve their legacies. Estate Planning can be as simple as wills and trusts, or extend to special needs planning for those with disabilities. We take care to customize your documents, help you understand what they are designed to do, and help you fund you asset protection vehicles. Our estate planning process is not a "cookie cutter, one size fits all process."  We take the time to get to know the needs of your family, before drafting documents to address those needs.

Medicaid Planning: If you are faced with a need for nursing home or assisted living facility care, you may be concerned about depleting the legacy that you have worked hard to build to pay for medical care. We offer advice on how to protect some of your assets. We offer crisis and non-crisis planning.
