PROTECT YOUR FAMILY.

Secure Your Legacy.

Attorney Robert Schaller can help you leave a lasting legacy of love and support for generations to come. Schaller Law Firm offers legal services encompassing a comprehensive range of important estate planning documents, designed to provide individuals with peace of mind and secure their future. Your attorney focuses on the following essential services:

1. Last Will and Testament: Your attorney assists in the creation of legally binding wills that outline your final wishes regarding asset distribution, guardianship of minor children, and the appointment of an executor to manage your estate after your passing. A last will and testament ensures that your intentions are clearly stated and carried out according to your wishes.
2. Powers of Attorney: Your attorney provides assistance in drafting powers of attorney, which grant trusted individuals the authority to make legal, financial, or medical decisions on your behalf in the event that you become incapacitated or unable to make such decisions yourself. Powers of attorney ensure that your affairs are handled by someone you trust, helping to avoid potential complications and conflicts.
3. Living Trust: Your attorney can establish a living trust, a flexible estate planning tool that allows you to transfer ownership of your assets to a trust during your lifetime. By creating a living trust, you retain control over your assets while providing a mechanism for their management and distribution upon your incapacitation or death, without the need for probate.
4. Special-Needs Trust: A Special Needs Trust, also known as a supplemental needs trust, is a legal instrument. The trust is specifically designed to benefit special needs individuals. The primary purpose of a special needs trust is to provide for the beneficiary’s supplemental needs and quality of life. The trust is designed not to jeopardize their eligibility for government benefits, such as Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
5. Blended Family Trust: A Blended Family Trust, also known as a Step-Up Trust or Qualified Terminable Interest Property (QTIP) Trust, is a specialized type of trust designed to address the unique estate planning needs of blended families. The trust allows the grantor to provide for the current spouse while ensuring that the grantor’s children from the prior marriage are also protected and provided for after the grantor’s passing.
