Estate planning involves the management and transfer of assets and wealth. At Barrett & Deacon the focus of our planning is on life (the client and intended beneficiaries) not death. The estate plan is a way to make sure the client's wishes are respected and the wealth is deployed in the manner desired to serve the living. Since the use of wealth to serve lifetime needs is part of our planning approach, asset protection is also considered.
Our estate planning attorneys advise clients on ways to preserve assets, transfer wealth during lifetime, avoid probate at death and minimize the tax burden involved. One of our estate planning lawyers has an LL.M., an advanced degree in taxation law, another is a certified public accountant (CPA) as well as an attorney.
We will choose estate planning tools such as wills, trusts, powers of attorneys, living wills (also known as health care directives or declarations of the right to die), guardianships, conservatorships and more to custom-tailor an estate plan that meets your specific needs and goals.
Whether you need a simple will and trust or a plan for a large, complex estate that includes business succession planning, you can rely on Barrett & Deacon, P.A. We also handle post-death legal needs, including probate and estate administration, and will contests.
Please contact us today to discuss estate planning and estate administration. From offices in Jonesboro and Fayetteville, our attorneys represent clients throughout Arkansas, nationally and internationally.
