Experienced Colorado Wills Attorney Secures Your Legacy
COMPREHENSIVE PLANS TO PROTECT YOUR FAMILY’S FUTURE
Wills are a principal legal instrument attorneys use to help clients transfer assets to their heirs. The experienced attorneys at Parker Lawyers can advise you on the best means for you to address your legacy concerns, including the transfer of financial and real property assets, estate tax avoidance, guardianships for minor children, and support for philanthropic causes. We draft precise wills that reflect your desires and that serve your estate planning needs.
DRAFT YOUR LIVING WILL AND LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
A will is essential at every stage of your life. A living will sets the parameters for medical intervention should you become incapacitated. This assures that when you are most vulnerable, your wishes will be honored.
Your last will and testament provides the opportunity to distribute your property, establish care for your children and otherwise express your wishes upon your death. A will is the primary means by which you can leave property to a person or entity other than a blood relative, such as a domestic partner, a friend or a charity. If you die without a will, the court determines how your property is distributed, who cares for your children and even what happens to your pet — making decisions that might not reflect your desires. We draft valid wills that clearly convey your intentions.
CHANGING YOUR WILL
It is a good idea to review your will with your attorney every three to five years, and update the will to reflect changes in your circumstances and priorities. We also draft valid codicils that address changes in your financial situation, marital status, number of children, philanthropic interests and general lifestyle decisions.
