 | Lawyer Planning for Your Future in San AntonioPreparing for your future and for that of your loved ones is the only effective way to make sure your last wishes are honored. Making the necessary arrangements can be complex, with many factors to consider, both legal and personal. To discuss your estate planning and probate needs, e-mail me or call 210-867-7141.There is never a charge for your initial consultation. Prior to my beginning work on your legal mater I will quote the fee for my legal services and I will give you an estimate of the expenses for which you will be liable. Estate PlanningI assist clients with all aspects of estate planning, including the drafting of simple or complex wills and trusts, or granting someone property or medical power of attorney to make decisions on your behalf should the need arise. Preparing a will ensures that your assets are distributed per your instructions. Structuring a plan of division can be difficult, but it can be an act of love that helps to prevent misunderstandings and strife in your family after you are gone. Assigning power of attorney to a trusted individual in advance can be crucial in situations where you are unable to act on your own behalf. This, in combination with a medical directive, makes known your health care wishes and takes the burden off your family when the need arises to make the most difficult decisions. My clients are sometimes ill when they decide to take these steps. I make it my mission to assist in any way possible to allow you to focus on recovery. I'll make the trip to your home, nursing home or hospital to meet with you , gather the necessary information to draft the proper forms, and to ensure execution of the documents with all required formalities. ProbateMy experience also includes helping clients through the probate process following a loved one's passing. I will make all necessary appearances in probate court and handle all necessary court documents including: - Application to probate the will and obtaining Letters Testamentary
- Proof of death
- Oath of executor
- Notice to creditors (normally by publication)
- Inventory and appraisement of the estate
- Any necessary waivers/notices to beneficiaries
In addition, I can assist in making all necessary transfers of real or personal property to the named beneficiaries. I can also assist clients who need assistance in clearing title to inheritances coming by way of intestacy (where a person died without a will). To discuss your estate planning or probate needs, call me at 210-867-7141 or e-mail me today. There is never a fee for your initial consultation. Susan Grothues Simmons, J.D., MBA
