• Estate and Elder Law

    It is important no matter what age you are (provided your over 18 years) that you have a Last Will and Testament in place. This is because if you die without a Will or intestate, this can not only make it more difficult for your surviving loved ones to deal with your estate, but also Estate law will state as to how your estate is to be distributed. In addition it is also important during your lifetime to appoint someone to manage your financial affairs and welfare in the event you no longer have capacity to do so. As professional local Estate Lawyers, we at Dana K Legal can help.
