Schedule a Free ConsultationComplete Estate Planning for Charlotte Families
Estate planning isn’t a luxury — it’s essential protection for your family. Whether you have a young family, significant assets, or just want peace of mind, we create custom estate plans that fit your situation and your budget.
We serve all of Mecklenburg County — Charlotte, Concord, Cornelius, Davidson, Matthews, Mint Hill, and beyond. 100% virtual. Flat-fee pricing. Licensed in NC and SC.
Estate Planning Services We Provide
Revocable Living Trust
Avoid probate entirely. A living trust keeps your affairs private, lets you maintain full control during your lifetime, and makes distribution fast and easy for your family.
Last Will & Testament
Your will directs how your assets are distributed and who handles your estate. If you have minor children, your will names their guardian.
Durable Financial POA
Appoints someone to manage your finances and investments if you become incapacitated. Essential for protecting your accounts and real estate.
Healthcare Power of Attorney
Designates who can make medical decisions if you can’t communicate. Required for hospitals and doctors to talk to your family.
Living Will
Documents your end-of-life wishes — life support, feeding tubes, resuscitation. Ensures your values guide medical decisions.
Minor Child Guardianship
If you have young children, your will names who raises them if both parents pass away. This protects your kids’ future.
Most Charlotte families benefit from multiple documents. We design custom packages that provide complete protection at flat-fee pricing. Learn more about our complete virtual process.
