What estate planning attorneys do

An estate planning attorney prepares the documents that say who receives your property, who manages your affairs if you can't, and who makes medical decisions for you. A typical plan includes a will, durable power of attorney, health care directive and sometimes a revocable living trust.

When to call one

  • You have children, own a home or business, or have never made a will
  • You've married, divorced, moved states or had a major change in assets
  • You want to name a guardian for minor children or plan for a family member with special needs

Questions to ask before you hire

  • Do you charge a flat fee or by the hour, and what does the fee include?
  • Will you recommend a will, a trust or both for my situation, and why?
  • How often should I review the plan, and do updates cost extra?
