Winston-Salem, Forsyth County Lawyer for Wills and EstatesMany of my clients find that they gain peace of mind from creating a will or estate plan. Creating a will means that they have a plan in place for their loved ones and possessions when they pass away. For many, this means that they won't burden heirs with unnecessary taxes or family disputes. It means that they have responsibly planned to take care of their family members and other loved ones. At the downtown Winston-Salem law office of Paul C. Shepard, I help my clients create wills, powers of attorney, living wills, healthcare powers of attorney, guardianships, and trusts. I also handle the administration of estates, dealing with all the legal requirements that are involved with the Clerk of Court in Forsyth County. I take time to work with my clients on an individual basis to create a will that really meets their needs. Because I listen to your needs and take responsive legal action, you know that the will I create for you will respond uniquely to your expressed desires. Why have an attorney draft your will or estate plan? In addition to giving you more control over your property at the time of your death, creating a will helps you save costs and taxes that would otherwise be charged against your estate. It allows you to appoint executors and trustees for young beneficiaries. By naming an executor in your will, you can avoid the need to post a bond to insure the performance of the executor's fiduciary obligations. By naming trustees for young beneficiaries, you can avoid similar costs that would otherwise be involved in appointing a guardian for any minor beneficiaries.
