Do not delay and leave your final intentions up to the state to take care of. Having a last will and testament drawn up will protect your estate and other assets and ensure your loved ones can carry out your wishes.
The lawyers at Whitney, Newman, Mersch, Otto & Grafton are dedicated to providing attentive care to this delicate issue. We will walk you through your options and help you decide whether a will or trust makes more sense for dividing your estate and ensure you have all the proper paperwork to draft your will or trust.
Without drawing up a last will and testament, your estate will be entrusted to the state government. While thinking about death can be difficult, it is much more beneficial to prepare now. Luckily, a will is easy to draft and offers a lot of flexibility in providing financial support after one’s death.
If you are dealing with special circumstances or a more substantial estate, forming a trust will allow you to effectively protect your interests. A trust will also allow assets to pass outside of probate and therefore remain private in addition to potentially reducing losses from court fees and taxes.
Drawing up a will or trust protects those you love after you pass on. The state could easily make uninformed decisions on your behalf, jeopardizing the financial and practical safety of your family. Why leave it up to chance? Stay prepared and protect your loved ones as best you can.
"We just wanted to thank you for all of your excellence and hard work. Our family truly appreciates everything you have done for our son. This has been a life changing event and it would have been different if we wouldn’t have found your law firm. You have given our son his life back and we can’t thank you enough for fighting for our son."
"I cannot thank you enough for all you did for me with my case; it meant a great deal to me."
"I am very pleased with all the services provided to my husband and I. Scott Grafton accomplished more in 6 months than our previous attorney did in 3 years. I wish someone had introduced us to Mr. Grafton sooner. I have had much involvement with legal battles due to our situation, medical needs, insurance, legal battles and I have been very happy with what Mr. Grafton has done to help us resolve our problems with them."
"Scott Grafton works tirelessly to fight for the justice his clients deserve. I met Scott in Atlanta this weekend at a legal education seminar about understanding juror bias and decision making. Scott spent time and resources to travel across the country to learn how he can get more justice for his clients. I'm impressed with Scott's skills and work ethic."
"Scott Grafton is one of the best lawyers in Central Nebraska. I have worked with him on several matters and have been impressed on each and every one."
"The best law firm in the area! Great service and fast!"
"Scott was my saving grace in a very stressful situation. Because of his expertise, hard work and compassionate support, Scott was able to guide me through an overwhelming court system and get my case dismissed."
"Thank you for the speedy, professionalism in a job well done."
