New statistics show that two-thirds of Americans die without a valid will or trust. The consequences of what is called dying intestate (without a will) can be dyer, costing the decedent's family significant attorney and court costs and leaving valuable assets and sentimental items in limbo for months or years after death.

At Robbins Law LLC, we encourage all clients to, at minimum, have a last will and testament in place to ensure that their wishes regarding assets and property are carried out upon death. But for many clients, much more can be accomplished to successfully plan for end-of-life scenarios, including the execution of a living will or healthcare directive, appointment of a power of attorney, and creation of a trust, which can protect estates of substantial assets far more than a last will and testament.
