How We
Can Help
First, lots of people don’t need a Last Will & Testament. In this day and age, many small estates can be dealt with by other means that are cheaper and less time-consuming. Second, estate planning is never a “cost.” While there may be n expense associated with the initial development of a plan, the long term implications should represent both a “savings” and a terrific return on investment. J. Clarke Wilcox, PLLC can show you how that initial expense is a sound investment in the future. Finally, there are many, many, very difficult decisions that a family has to make as a loved one grows old. Much of the pain and heartache can be removed or minimized by putting an affordable and doable plan in place.
The attorneys at J. Clarke Wilcox, PLLC are experts in separating fact from fiction. You’ve heard a lot of myths: “If you don’t have a will, the state takes everything.” “You have to be broke to get medicaid.” “Everybody should have a trust.” Those common statements, and many other similar ones, just aren’t true.
