Estate Planning & Probate
Estate Planning
Every adult should have a plan for what will happen to their assets after they are gone, and how their affairs will be managed during their lives if they are unable to continue doing so on their own. We help families to set up:
• Wills and Trusts
• Powers of Attorney
• Living Wills
• Proper handling of non-probate assets
Special Needs Trusts
Self-funded: We help individuals with disabilities establish a self-settled special needs trust to ensure their public benefits are protected. We can help you protect your benefits if you will be receiving money that will put you over the asset limit for public benefits, like:
• Inheritance
• Back pay
• Worker's compensation settlement
• Personal injury lawsuit settlement
Third party: When you have a child with disabilities, your estate plan can involve planning for the rest of your child’s life, after you are gone. We help families set up special needs trusts to ensure their children are provided for after death and their public benefits are protected.
Estate Administration
When a loved one passes away, it's a difficult time emotionally. However, administering the estate can be a complicated process. We are here to help. We handle all aspects of estate administration, including probate litigation.
We represent families through the probate process. If you have been named the executor or personal representative of an estate, or if someone you love has passed away without a will, give us a call.
Guardianship estates: We represent guardians to handle complicated estate issues, such as business and real estate sales, divorce, and other sensitive financial matters.
Attorney Davis Dávila also serves as guardian of the estate for individuals, especially when there has been fraud or neglect in administering the estate by a previous guardian.
