Representing Tampa Clients in Estate Planning & Probate

Estate Planning

When clients come to our firm, they often have a specific goal in mind. Some individuals want to create a plan that will protect a family member, while others are interested in protecting a minor child or planning for a second marriage. At the Law Offices of Laurie E. Ohall, we work with clients to determine the best way to achieve their goals, whatever they may be.

Work with an attorney who will treat you respectfully. Contact us online or call 813-514-8180 for a free 30 minute estate planning consultation or receive a complimentary estate planning questionnaire.

Our attorney, Laurie Ohall, drafts and reviews the following estate planning documents with clients:

Power of attorney: A power of attorney allows you to name the person who will step into your shoes when you are unable to make decisions. There are various power of attorney documents, including those pertaining to both finances and healthcare. Wills: It is important to decide who will receive your assets at the time of your death. Without a will, that decision is left to the court. Trusts: Trusts are another way to leave your assets to your loved ones. A trust can also help you avoid probate and take care of loved ones who may not be able to handle an outright distribution of money. With a trust, a successor trustee takes over when you die. Special needs trust: A special needs trust ensures that a disabled individual (such as a minor child, an adult child, or a disabled spouse) receives support without losing any government benefits they might be receiving; the trust can then help the disabled individual with paying for things that the government benefits might not cover. Health care directives: A health care directive names a specific person to carry out your medical wishes. Having a person named can eliminate problems in the event of a medical emergency.
