Estate Planning

Many people think of tax planning when they hear the phrase “estate planning.” However, the reality is that at its core, estate planning is about taking care of yourself and those you love. The amount of wealth you have or taxes you can save is secondary to other considerations such as ensuring your loved ones are taken care of in the case of unexpected life events, making sure you will be cared for if you are no longer able to care for yourself, and providing a legacy of love and purpose for when you are gone.

Your Estate Plan is your written instruction for what happens when you are no longer able to care for yourself or control your own assets, through disability or death. If you want to control how things are handled for the rest of your life and after your death, you must have your own estate plan. Your lawyer will help ensure the legal language in that writing is such that it will make your instructions legally enforceable. Absent an estate plan, the law of the state controls what happens and that rarely aligns with what you really want. Your instructions will protect and provide for you, your spouse or partner, children, pets, assets, goals, and legacy.

At Littleton Legal, we call estate planning “happy law.” Why? Because we have the privilege of spending our days protecting our clients and their families, creating legacies, and benefiting charities. We are happy when we know we’ve done everything we can to help your family thrive, and we believe this will make you happy too.

After our family friend passed away at 50 without a will or estate plan, I knew that I didn’t want my kids and spouse to go through the chaos my friend did. I can say that I have been thoroughly impressed with communication from their office. I like that Brittany has business experience and has answered questions about my LLC as well.

I just want to Thank Littleton Legal for helping us with our Estate Planning and Will at a time that was very crucial that we get everything in order, and as many of us do we wait until something bad happens and then are trying to get everything done last minute. I cannot Thank Christy enough for being so kind to us and moving on things so quickly to get everything finalized when we already had so much going on, Thank You again to everyone at Littleton Legal, I plan on giving you more of my business and will refer you to as many people as I can!

Littleton Legal helped my family with estate planning, and we felt very good having our options explained to us in a way that we understood. They were willing to help us with some non-traditional agreements we needed to include, and made sure we fully understood the potential impact of our choices in putting together our affairs. I am so glad that we started our marriage off this way; waiting until closer to the end of your life makes it much more difficult and emotional, as I have seen with our older relatives. Thanks Littleton Legal, for giving us the comfort of knowing our children won’t have to fight for our assets when we are gone.

I highly recommend the team at Littleton Legal for any needs related to estate planning, preparation and for a variety of business support services. Brittany and her team can help get you ready for the unexpected and will do it in a respectful and professional manner.

Kristi S.

I am the single parent of three and have a business, so getting my estate in order was not going to be an easy task, and I really needed to trust that the person doing it would do it correctly. I had worked around Littleton Legal for about three years and had considered them and several others for my estate work and very happily landed with Littleton Legal. Brittany and her team are knowledgeable, trustworthy, effective, and move quickly, which is what I was looking for. They use technology in a savvy way that saved me time and emotional energy. And, Brittany is always careful to explain why she is suggesting the strategy she’s suggesting and what the pros and cons are. I could not have found a better partner for my family’s financial security and I can’t recommend the firm highly enough.

I co-counseled with Natalie on a probate matter involving foreign national. Natalie maintained a high level of integrity and kept the cost at a reasonable level. Eventually she negotiated for a resolution that’s in the client’s best interest. I’m impressed by the professionalism and would like to give her a shoutout.

Hansi M.

I couldn’t recommend working with Littleton Legal enough. Brittany and her team are professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. All of my questions were answered through my Estate planning. Brittany even made sure that questions I hadn’t thought to ask were answered as well. I’m so happy to have Littleton Legal on my side!

Littleton Legal was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Their team helped my colleagues and me with issues around corporate formation and 501(c)(3) application. With the expert service of Littleton Legal, our nonprofit was granted tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3) as a public charity within a year of applying. Highly recommended for your business needs.

Marley S.

Brittany and her staff were so easy to work with. I went in not knowing a ton about estate planning and ended the process feeling confident in my understanding and of the decisions being made. There’s probably never a comfortable time to spend the money and effort on estate planning, but she has the process so streamlined that it was really painless. I highly recommend!
