- WillsA will is a foundational estate planning document. It is recommended that every adult in Virginia have a professionally drafted will in place. For most people, a standardized will is not the best option. You need a custom will that properly protects your interests. Among other things, a will can be used to name heirs, distribute assets, name a guardian for a minor child, and appoint an estate administrator. At The Jackson Law Group, our Hillsville, VA estate planning lawyers have the skills and legal knowledge needed to help you put together a last will and testament that is best suited to your unique needs.
- TrustsAs important as it is to have a will in place, it is not always the best estate planning vehicle to transfer assets to beneficiaries. In some cases, you may be better served by setting up a revocable living trust, a charitable trust, a Special Needs Trust, or some other type of trust. When set up in the proper manner, trusts offer a number of different benefits, including efficiency, privacy, and avoidance of Virginia’s probate process. Further, trusts are flexible. Life changes, and so can your trust. If you have questions or concerns about setting up a trust or trust planning in general, our Carroll County estate planning lawyers are here to help.
- Power of AttorneyIt depends on the specific circumstances that you and your family are currently dealing with. A legal document called a power of attorney is a great option to name an agent to take action on a loved one’s behalf only if the person is still mentally competent and understands what he or she is signing.
