  In these uncertain times, Ecton Law Firm believes our clients deserve not only Peace of Mind with Taxes, but also Peace of Mind for their families. Many of our clients are extremely concerned about their health and mortality as a result of the COVID-19 Crisis. In our effort to protect and continue to provide that Peace of Mind for our clients, we are now offering affordable Estate Planning Services.
• Wills
• Trusts
  Every person’s situation is different, and sometimes more detailed documents are the best fit, some of which may include: Revocable Living Trusts, Supplemental Needs Trusts, or Pet Trusts.
• Power of Attorney
  These documents help express your wishes for your kiddos in the event you are incapacitated or are deceased: Nomination of Guardian, successor guardian, temporary guardians, medical powers of attorney, durable powers of attorney and ancillary instructions.

Finance Law

• Bankruptcy
  It depends on the type of tax, how old it is, and when you filed the tax return. I do not practice bankruptcy law, but if I think that is your best alternative, I will refer you to a qualified bankruptcy attorney.
