estate planning

Fleming & Miranda has helped many families and individuals plan to take care of their loved ones after they are gone. We are experienced in drafting documents necessary to plan for Estates large and small.

Regardless of whether you have a sizeable estate or not, you may have items with great sentimental value that you want distributed to the proper parties. Also, we can help you arrange for loved ones to make health decisions for you in the event that you cannot. Below are some of the services we offer:

 

Probate Avoidance

The process of administering an Estate through Probate can be costly and time consuming. We may be able to help you position your property in a manner that will limit or avoid it being subject to said process.

 

Property Distribution Through Wills

By operation of law, your property will be divided among family members upon your death, however, it may not be in the manner you see fit. Preparation of a simple will may not be as expensive as you think.

If you have not yet planned for how your property will be divided when you are gone, or if you want to change the way you had previously planned to divide said property, please contact us. Fleming & Miranda has the expertise and experience needed to help you do so.

 

Limiting Your Estates Tax Liability

As you may or may not know, the Federal Government legislated a waiver of Estate taxes for those who die in the year 2010. If you are fortunate enough not to die in 2010, experts anticipate that as of January 1, 2011 the Federal Government will resume collection of the estate tax.

Therefore, it may be beneficial to you to plan to limit your potential Estate tax liability. Fleming & Miranda is experienced in developing and applying strategies that will help you do so.

 

Powers of Attorney and Other Healthcare Documents

There are certain documents that everyone should have in place that will allow a person of your chosing to make important medical decisions on your behalf in the event that you are unable to for any period of time. Fleming & Miranda can help you prepare these documents.
