A Lawyer Fully Experienced in Estate Planning
Estate planning is all we do at the Hamilton Law Office in Sudbury, Massachusetts. Attorney Stuart Hamilton knows the law and is aware of all changes in the law. That means he can develop an estate plan for you that does what you want — not what the state thinks you might have wanted.
Plan your estate or Massachusetts will plan it for you.
If you die without leaving instructions for how your assets will be passed on or divided, the state will make a best guess based on laws that are aimed at the average situation. If you are in a second marriage, long-term partnership, a same-sex relationship, have no children, have a special needs child, have responsibility for a vulnerable adult and in many other situations, it is best — and a great help to your family and other loved ones — to have a well thought-out estate plan.

By making an estate plan, you will:
- Put the people you trust in charge. Make a last will and testament. Choose your executor, a guardian for your child.
- Plan ahead so that you can reduce complicated transfers of assets and eliminate or reduce inheritance taxes.
- Prepare durable powers of attorney and health care proxies that place important decision-making powers in the hands of those you trust should the need arise.
- Have an experienced estate planning lawyer who will notify you if any changes in the law will affect your estate plan.
A thoroughly prepared estate plan can help your family know your wishes if you are incapacitated by illness. Your estate plan can also guide your loved ones through a difficult time in their lives.
