When you need trustworthy and competent legal services, David R. Brewer, Attorney at Law, PLLC is the first place to turn. We get what client relationships are all about, we get results, and we get referred to your family, friends and business associates.

TRUSTS & WILLS

Trusts & WillsWill and Trust law is the process of planning for the orderly (and financially sound) transfer of one’s property upon the occurrence of certain key life events. One need not (and often should not) wait until death for the formation of a trust, and MUST not wait until death for the drafting of a will (by then it is too late). While planning to avoid estate taxes is not the need of every client, drafting a will most certainly is. Mr. Brewer and his firm can assist you in this process whatever one’s state in life may be.

Mr. Brewer regularly assists clients of every income level in the drafting and execution of a personalized will, power of attorney, medical power of attorney, and various trusts. Please see the attached presentation for an overview of the reasons EVERYONE is better off with a will. This is the basic building block of every estate plan, and the benefits gained from putting your will in place FAR outweigh the costs associated with obtaining a professionally drafted and properly executed will.

Keep in mind that expertise in this practice area, as well as other practice areas of the firm (Business Law, Litigation, Real Estate Law, Trusts and Wills, Probate, Family Law), is available with our Outsourced General Counsel service.
