Estate Planning for Westerville Families


Westerville residents often want to protect a home, retirement savings, and the education of children or grandchildren. A complete plan typically includes a will, a revocable living trust where appropriate, financial and health care powers of attorney, and a living will declaration. We tailor the documents to your family and the property you hold.

Planning With Franklin County in Mind


Estates in Westerville are typically administered through the Franklin County Probate Court. We design plans that reduce the assets subject to that court’s supervision and keep the process straightforward for your executor or trustee.
