What is a Health Care Directive?
A health care directive is a legal document that outlines your medical preferences and appoints someone to make health decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so. It ensures your wishes are respected and provides clarity for your loved ones during difficult situations. Our attorneys help you create a clear and legally enforceable directive tailored to your needs.

FAQ
How long does trust administration take?
Most straightforward trust administrations take 6–12 months. Complex estates with real estate, business interests, or beneficiary disputes can take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline in your free consultation.
Do I need a Trust if I already have a Will?
Yes. A Will only takes effect after you pass away and usually requires probate. A Trust works while you are alive and helps your family avoid court entirely.
How much does a Trust cost?
The cost of a trust depends on the complexity of your estate. We offer flat-fee pricing so there are never any surprises. We’ll give you a specific quote during your free consultation.
What happens if I don’t have a Trust?
Without a trust, your estate may have to go through Probate court, which can be expensive, public, and take 12–18 months to complete.
