Vernon Hills Estate Planning Counsel

Our skilled attorneys know that a "one-size-fits-all" solution does not exist in the world of estate planning. Your circumstances might be similar to those of another family, but no two cases are exactly the same. This means in order to be effective, an estate plan must be tailored to address the details of your situation.

When you choose Newland & Newland, LLP, you become part of a team that is dedicated to helping you and your family establish a sense of security and peace of mind. We will meet with you to discuss your circumstances so that we can better understand your values and goals. Doing so gives us the insight we need to recommend estate planning tools and strategies to meet your unique needs.

The team at Newland & Newland, LLP has the experience and knowledge to assist you with:

• Wills: A Will, sometimes called a Last Will and Testament frequently provides the basis of a solid estate plan. With your will, you can transfer property to your chosen heirs, donate to charity, make guardianship arrangements regarding your children, and much more.
• Trusts: There are a wide variety of trusts that could be used to safeguard your assets and to transfer them to your beneficiaries. We will help you determine which trust or trusts may be best for your unique objectives.
• Powers of Attorney: A Power of Attorney for Property allows you to appoint another person to make financial decisions on your behalf in the event you cannot make them on your own. A Power of Attorney for Health Care gives another person similar authority over your medical decisions.
• Adult Guardianships: Guardianship of an adult allows a disabled person to get the help they need with managing their affairs.
