Estate Planning and Successions
Creating an estate plan helps you protect your family and give clear direction about what should happen to your property. We’ll work with you to prepare documents that reflect your goals and follow Louisiana law.
Our estate planning services include:
- Last will and testaments – A will outlines how your assets should be distributed and names a guardian for any minor children.
- Revocable and irrevocable trusts – Trusts can help you manage assets during your lifetime, provide for beneficiaries, and establish clear instructions for property held in trust.
- Financial mandate (power of attorney) – This document allows someone you trust to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf if you’re unable to do so.
- Medical mandate (medical power of attorney) – This document appoints a person to make medical decisions for you if you are unable to do so.
- Living will – This outlines your wishes for medical treatment if you become seriously ill or incapacitated.
We also help families in Ascension Parish handle successions, Louisiana’s legal process of transferring a deceased person’s estate to their heirs. If you’ve lost a loved one and aren’t sure where to begin, we’ll guide you through the process—whether there was a will or not. Our firm is here to reduce stress and help you move forward with confidence.
