Estate Planning

Columbia, Maryland Estate Planning Lawyer

At the Walsh & Company estate planning law firm, our objective is to make sure you have an estate plan that is best for you. Your needs and requirements do not match those of any other person. You can rely on our Baltimore-Washington Corridor estate planning lawyers to understand your needs and to make sure your estate plan documents are drafted in your best interests.

Most people realize they need a will to assure their property is distributed according to their wishes. And many come to us for a durable medical power of attorney (often called a “health care power of attorney”) or a living will (also called a “health care instructions”), to make sure family members know how they want a terminal illness handled. At Walsh & Company, we will review all your estate planning needs.

Guiding you through the maze of legal issues as you age

When you come to the Walsh & Company estate planning law firm to talk about your will, a Baltimore estate planning lawyer will listen carefully to your objectives and review your unique situation. Fill out our estate planning form (available on this Web site or by mail), and your attorney will have valuable information about your requirements.

Your completed estate plan will be unique to you. It will include those documents relevant to your situation. Many types of documents are available. One, several, or all of the following might be a part of your comprehensive, complete estate plan.

  • Wills
  • Trusts
  • Revocable living trusts
  • Irrevocable trusts
  • Life insurance trusts
  • Special needs trusts
  • Charitable remainder trusts
  • Qualified domestic trusts
  • Personal residence trusts
  • Powers of attorney
  • Durable medical powers of attorney (health care power of attorney)
  • Living will (health care instructions)

After our first meeting, we will draft the documents you need to fulfill your wishes. At a second meeting, we will review the documents with you. After making needed changes and rechecking all the elements of the documents, we will have a third meeting for a final review and your signature.

Our estate planning services are at all times tailored to you and your needs. There are no off-the-shelf wills and trusts at Walsh & Company. We know that your legacy and your family’s future are important to you. They are important to us, too.
