Wayne Estate Planning Lawyer

Passaic Wills and Trusts Lawyer

The right estate plan can help you distribute your assets, honor your wishes and simplify the administration process for your family. With so many options available, you want an attorney who can explain your options and help you develop a comprehensive estate plan tailored to your needs.

I am Wayne and Teaneck wills and trusts and estate planning attorney Louis B. Chapman, and for more than 25 years I have helped clients from all walks of life with their estate planning concerns. Having built a practice based on referrals, my clients know they can come to me for both their estate planning and estate administration concerns.

The Right Will to Help You Protect Your Family From an Unpredictable Legal Process

Every person should have an estate plan that can protect his or her rights. Dedicated to helping everyday people with simple and complex concerns, I can help you explore your full range of options. A good estate plan will do more than just line up a way to distribute your assets. It will also set up a plan for your medical and financial decisions if you are no longer able to make those decisions yourself. I will use the following tools to help you achieve your objectives:

  • Wills and will contest litigation
  • Living wills
  • Testamentary trusts
  • Life insurance trusts
  • Powers of attorney
  • Health care directives
  • Hand-tailored wills in accordance to your religious convictions

In addition to my estate planning services, I also help New Jersey families through the estate administration process. Whether you have an in-depth estate plan to follow or you have to go through the probate process, I will be there for you every step of the way.

Estate Administration Services

Following the death of a loved one, dealing with the legal affairs of the financial estate is often confusing, frustrating and emotional. At a time when you should be remembering your beloved parent or grandparent fondly, you have creditors calling and legal matters to deal with.

Wherever you are in the United States, if one of your loved ones died in New Jersey, or has real estate in New Jersey, my law firm offers services to handle every detail of the probate process and estate administration. From closing down business contracts to negotiating with creditors and settling disputes about the will, I will ensure that all legal loose ends are tied up neatly. I offer responsive, compassionate services at a reasonable fee.
