Wills and trusts are estate planning documents that help people specify how they want their assets distributed after they die. A will and trust attorney at Arkin.Law can help you create an estate plan that achieves your unique goals, such as helping your heirs avoid probate court or ensuring that your minor children will have the right legal guardian if you pass away before they reach adulthood. Our will and trust lawyers assist clients in Atlanta, GA and the surrounding areas.
Your last will and testament is a legally enforceable document that allows you to state your wishes regarding who will receive your assets (money, real estate, personal belongings, etc.) when you die. A will can also designate a legal guardian for your minor child in the event that your death leaves them parentless. A will lawyer at Arkin.Law can help you draft, review, or amend your will to ensure that it aligns with your personal estate planning goals.

One of our trust lawyers can assess your personal goals and help you develop a personalized estate plan to accomplish them. These are some of the reasons why you may want to set up a trust:
