Estate Planning

Your Family Can Prepare For Tomorrow Today

Serving Northern Kentucky and the Ohio Valley

At the law office of Hans M. Tinkler, Attorney & Counselor at Law, we have helped countless people over the years prepare for what may come tomorrow. Our lawyer's large firm experience and small firm personal dedication is an important benefit for our estate planning clients.

It's never too early to deal with important estate planning obligations. We are here to guide you through the process, whether you are creating a new will or modifying an existing estate plan. Our law firm is never far from your urgent concerns and questions. Your peace of mind is our most important priority. To discuss your estate planning needs with an experienced Newport attorney, contact us at 859-809-4131.

We want you to understand the many lasting benefits of a thoughtful, well-written estate plan: the will or trust that transfers your monetary assets and physical property to loved ones, the power of attorney that helps with the execution of financial and health care decisions, and a living will- to help avoid confusion about a person's decisions.

Comprehensive Estate Planning: Estates, Probate, Wills and Trusts

You can depend on our steady legal counsel in all aspects of estate planning:

  • Trusts: offer asset protection, tax minimizing benefits and can enable loved ones to avoid probate after your passing
  • Wills: allow you to direct how assets not transferred into a living trust should be distributed to heirs
  • Powers of attorney: ensure medical and financial concerns will be taken care of when you lack the capacity to manage these concerns for yourself
  • Guardianships for disabled adults and minor children offer protection when an adult has not established a power of attorney or when a parent of minor children dies

Comprehensive estate planning is important even when you don't have significant assets in the bank or property at your disposal. At a minimum, most people have financial assets in the form of insurance benefits or 401k retirement accounts. Unless you direct how your assets should be distributed, the state intestacy laws will decide for you. Don't postpone your estate planning any longer. A skilled lawyer's estate planning advice can provide many advantages. Most people find that establishing an estate plan including wills, trusts and other documents can be far less painful and less expensive than they imagined.

Give yourself the last word in all estate planning matters. Contact our northern Kentucky law office today.

We also provide effective probate and estate administration services, including probate litigation arising from will or trust disputes or other inheritance disputes.
