Estate Planning 50%

Commonly, estate planning involves Wills or living trusts, powers of attorney, community property agreements. All "estate planning" needs to be sensitive to taxes (estate and income), special needs and various elder law issues.

Probate 30%

"Probate" is a heading governing legal and financial affairs when someone has died. Formal probate proceedings are not always necessary.

Trusts 20%

Trusts are often a part of "Estate Planning", and are frequently part of the clients indicated under that heading along with other types of estate planning, such as Wills. Sometimes, trusts are done as a "stand alone" in appropriate situations.

Posted by Dave | September 20, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Mr David Kinney

Paul recently helped me and my wife with our estate planning documents- Last Will and Testament, Living Will, Power of Attorney etc. and we are so happy with the experience. We are in our 50's and were very behind- our only will being one that we did on-line 21 years ago! Paul took time to unders...tand our situation and then was able to tailor the necessary documents for our needs. His ability to clearly explain the reasons for certain wording and arrangements based on his extensive knowledge of tax codes and laws was amazing. We feel like we've found a lawyer that we can go to for any of our needs in the future.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
