Will Trust Attorney Oklahoma | Legal Trust Attorney

Trusts

Our firm offers comprehensive estate planning packages for your entire family. After a consultation to determine your goals and needs, we formulate the plan that will work best for you at a competitive price. Oftentimes families want to avoid the cost of probate by forming a trust, because a trust can pass your assets directly to your beneficiaries without having to go to court. Not only do trusts avoid the time and expenses of probate, they also provide more privacy for the family. A trust is simply a legal document that we prepare for you. We can also assist you in filing the deeds and necessary documents to fund your trust to carry out your wishes. Regardless of the size of your estate, a trust is usually the most cost effective way of passing your assets to your intended beneficiaries.

Durable Power of Attorney

We also recommend that all our estate planning clients execute a durable power of attorney. A durable power of attorney allows you to appoint a family member to make legal decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so in the future. The typical scenario entails elderly family members who become unable to make legal decisions for themselves as a result of Alzheimer’s/dementia or some other disease affecting mental functioning. The durable power of attorney would allow the appointed person to pay household bills, medical bills, and nursing home bills of the disabled relative. If a durable power of attorney is not in place already when someone becomes legally incompetent, a guardianship lawsuit has to be filed in district court costing the estate thousands of dollars.

Living Will/Medical Power of Attorney

A living will (sometimes referred to as a medical durable power of attorney) allows you to designate the type of medical care you want to be administered by your treating physicians in the event you become mentally unable to express your wishes. Many people want to take the burden off their relatives in making critical medical decisions once they develop an incurable, irreversible health condition. You can designate well in advance if you do not want to receive intravenous feedings, electric shock treatment, or artificial respirators to prolong your life when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. This will allow you to maintain your dignity and lift the burden from your family of making these decisions in a very emotionally difficult situation. You can also appoint a representative for less critical situations when you might only be temporarily unable to make medical decisions for yourself.

Every estate planning package is unique depending on the client’s needs and assets. We would like the opportunity to meet with you to help you form an estate planning package that best meets your needs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a work injury while working at Walmart. Mr. Melot is a very intelligent attorney & if you are ever injured on the job he is the best attorney. He will fight to the very end & obtain  the maximum benefits you are entitled to. He kept me well informed & even called me back on Saturdays. I highly recommend him & his team!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cant say enough good things about John! Its stressful enough dealing with an injury and everything that come alongside after. But john made a stressful situation as smooth as possible.  The two biggest things for me and I think most people when finding the right lawyer come down to how accessible they are when communication is needed are they doing what they said they would, and do you feel like they have your best interest in mind. 10/10 hope i never need a lawyer again for an injury but so grateful that I know an amazing one of i do.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I do not think that I could ever ask for a better lawyer than John Milo. He’s worked really hard on my case for the last year and 10 months and he got me more than what I ever thought. I’d expect out of the car wreck. Thank you so much John.
