Estate Planning Attorney Missouri - Jeffrey S Paul

Peace of Mind

Estate Planning is for everyone.  All of us have an estate, no matter how large or modest that may be.  Our estate consists of everything we may own, including our car, bank and savings accounts, investments, our home, other real estate, life insurance, business interests and our personal possessions.  A well thought out estate plan creates peace of mind for you and your loved ones by planning for your care while you are alive and should you become incapacitated; as well as providing for your loved ones upon your death.

Asset Protection

Shield your assets and keep your property safe against any potential risks. Your estate plan should strive to provide legal asset protection from creditors, taxes, court costs, unnecessary legal fees, and excessive liabilities.  As your estate planning guide, I will customize your plan to your needs.

 

Health Care

A Healthcare Directive is a must have part of any complete estate plan.  It is imperative to provide specific instructions regarding our health care.  If you are suddenly unable to make healthcare decisions for yourself, what will happen?  I can help you plan for that.

Specific Distribution

Your estate plan should provide for your care and wellbeing while you are alive or incapacitated. It should also control how, when, and to whom you wish to receive your assets after you die. The plan should do so in an easy, efficient, and cost-effective manner, and without the necessity of enduring time-consuming probate procedures.

With over four decades of experience, I have an extensive knowledge base that covers a multitude of practice areas. I believe in treating the needs of my clients with great attention and care to give them the utmost control of their futures.

Once we meet and I learn about your particular situation I will guide you through the basics of estate planning. Then, I will present you with options and create your custom estate planning documents and plan based on your needs.

Thank you for considering me as your estate planning attorney; I hope I may be of service.
