Shaw Legal Services, Ltd. - Practice Areas

Estate Planning

Our firm has experience in drafting power of attorneys, living wills, wills, and trusts. We also administer estates and trusts should you need help. Some of the services we offer include:

Wills:

We can draft a Will for you to designate guardians for minor children, to dispose of your assets, and also to direct your executor on funeral arrangements. You must have a Will drafted in accordance with Illinois Law. If it is not done properly, it will not be enforceable in Court.

Trusts:

A trust is good to avoid probate court and is another form of estate planning that offers more flexibility on how you dispose of your assets then a Will.

Power of Attorney:

A power of attorney is a document that designates someone who can act for you.

Living Will/Health Care Power of Attorney:

These documents direct your health care wishes when you are not able to.

Trust and Estate Administration:

If you are named a trustee or an executor or administrator of an estate, trust or will, we can assist you in preparing distributions, opening accounts, preparing accountings and settling estate affairs.
