When should you contact an estate planning attorney?
Too many people believe that estate planning is something that can be put off until later in life. Unfortunately, putting off discussing your assets with a lawyer can place your wealth in jeopardy. Marriage, divorce, the birth or adoption of a child, the acquisition of a business or real estate, and retirement are all times in life that you should consult with an estate planning lawyer. Unless you dictate who your estate will be left to, Missouri statutes will distribute your assets in a way that may not comply with your wishes.

At Lange, Paulus & Howald our probate lawyers are committed to helping you and your family successfully navigate the complicated landscape of Missouri probate proceedings.
