Estate Planning Services

Protect What Matters. Plan for the Future.

Estate planning is a critical component of long-term financial security. It’s not just about transferring your assets after death—it’s about creating a thoughtful, legally sound plan that reflects your wishes, protects your loved ones, and preserves the value of your estate.

At Knapp Law Firm, we help individuals and families of all backgrounds develop customized estate plans that go beyond simple wills. Whether you have a modest estate or a large portfolio, we’re here to help you secure your legacy.


Estate Planning Is for Everyone

Many people mistakenly believe estate planning is only for the wealthy. In reality, everyone has an estate—whether that includes real estate, savings accounts, investments, vehicles, or personal items with sentimental value. If you own anything of value and care about what happens to it, you need an estate plan.

In fact, families with modest estates may have the most to lose. Without a proper plan in place, your assets could be tied up in probate, subjected to unnecessary taxes, or distributed in ways that don’t reflect your intentions.


What Makes an Estate Plan Effective?

A strong estate plan does more than just divide your property. It provides:

  • Clear asset distribution according to your wishes
  • Tax efficiency to preserve your estate’s value
  • Legal protection for heirs, including minor children
  • Guardianship directives and healthcare instructions
  • Reduced family conflict and potential litigation
  • Business succession planning if applicable

At Knapp Law Firm, we take the time to understand your unique circumstances, family dynamics, and long-term goals. Then we build a plan that works for you—not a generic template.


Getting Started: What to Expect

The first step is to take a full inventory of your assets—real estate, personal property, financial accounts, retirement funds, insurance policies, and anything else of financial or emotional importance.

We’ll help you answer key questions like:

  • Who should inherit your property?
  • How and when should they receive it?
  • Who should manage your estate?
  • Who should make decisions if you become incapacitated?

This process is personal, and often emotional. That’s why having an experienced estate planning attorney matters. We’ll guide you with the right questions, uncover important considerations, and ensure that nothing gets overlooked.
