Estate Planning

Though many people might not realize it, estate planning is an essential part of preparing for the future. At Morton & Gettys, we are poised to help you work toward your goals for that future.

It is easy these days to find do-it-yourself Estate Planning forms online and complete them. That one-size-fits-all legal form, though, might not fit your specific needs. That is why it is important to consult an experienced legal professional such as the lawyers at Morton & Gettys. We will meet with you and discuss your unique situation.

Proper estate planning also can help with probate avoidance through tools such as trusts and property ownership planning.

There are many things that go into proper estate planning, including:

• Incapacity planning
• Planning for minor children
• Business succession planning and asset protection
• Trust planning

Morton & Gettys assists North Carolina and South Carolina clients of all wealth levels. We build relationships, working with people over the years to revise their estate plans as their needs and situations change.
