4 Reasons to Hire an Estate Planning Attorney

Probate is a judicial process whereby a will is “proved” in a court of law and accepted as the deceased's true testament. During this process, assets are also split to the inheritors once the will is determined to be true. Like any other court-involved procedure, this process can be lengthy and costly but can easily be avoided with an “authenticated will” through an estate planning attorney.

As attorneys, our professionals at Zaremba Center understand the law surrounding estate planning. We will explain the best course of action when it comes to protecting yourself, your family, and any distributed assets.

Even after death, your estate may be taxed on your rights to transfer property to others. Although there is no estate tax in Virginia, it can be subject to the federal tax percentage if your property is worth a certain amount. We can help you reduce liabilities by using specific methods, which we can easily explain to you!

We understand that plans may change, and you do not want to be stuck with the hassle of updating the numerous documents that go into estate planning. If something does arise, your attorney will create the necessary changes needed to get your plan up to speed, so no stress on your end!
