Our Trust and Estate Practice
Planning the gift of your estate through a
will or trust has vital impact on your loved ones. The philosopher Edmund Burke
said that the power of passing and preserving our property in our families is
one of the most valuable and interesting privileges we have.
At
Quinlivan & Hughes we believe that planning your estate is even more - it is
a source of strength to your family and one of the most loving and thoughtful
things you can do. We will listen to you and learn your personal objectives,
values and concerns. With these in mind, we will work earnestly to help you
accomplish your objectives.
The estate planning and administration
services that we provide to our clients include drafting wills, trusts, powers
of attorney and health care directives, planning to reduce estate and gift tax,
planning to avoid probate and protect assets from the cost of nursing homes,
planning to help families pass businesses to the next generation, handling
probate and trust administration, and assisting with charitable giving.
Please call one of our attorneys if you need any advice or
