Northern Virginia Estate Planning Attorneys

The majority of Americans do not have an estate plan, which creates a lot of risk and uncertainty for their families. People need to move forward with crafting a plan that provides guidance and structure for their surviving family members while also lowering the odds of an estate dispute and streamlining the asset distribution process. The right plan makes all the difference.

Fortunately, we can help those who do not yet have a plan in Virginia.

At Bristle Schulze, we have the experience and knowledge needed to help you consider all potential estate planning tools and documents. We can guide you through the process, creating a unique plan that addresses your family’s specific needs. This can give you peace of mind, as you know that your family will be well taken care of even long after your passing.

Our Estate Planning Services

Although every estate plan is unique, there are some key areas we focus on, including:

• Drafting a will
• Setting up a trust
• Drafting health care directives
• Setting up medical and financial powers of attorney
• Giving money to charity
• Reducing taxes

The exact tools you use depend on your goals. Young parents often want to set up trusts to hold assets for their children. Older couples may be more interested in health care planning, especially when it comes to medical assistance or end-of-life care. Wealthy business owners may be interested in succession planning or asset preservation, ensuring that they reduce the tax burden on the estate and pass more of their assets on to their family – rather than giving that money to the government.
