ESTATE PLANNING AND ADMINISTRATION
Estate Planning We help clients understand what will happen to their family, and property, in the event of incapacity or death. When clients fully understand their options regarding these important decisions, they are able to make informed decisions that best fit their lives. An individually tailored Last Will and Testament, Power of Attorney, Advance Directive, and Trust Agreement provide clients with comfort and security in knowing that their final wishes will be honored.
Estate Administration When an individual passes away, his or her estate will require administration. At Kehoe Moneyhun Law, LLC, we provide counsel to individuals during the stressful time of administering a loved one’s Last Will and Testament or Trust Agreement. We guide clients through the process with professionalism and compassion.
