Making Provisions for the Future
No one knows what the future holds. That's why it is important for you to create an estate plan that allows for the smooth transfer of your assets and communicates your wishes regarding medical treatment in the event you become unable to make them known later. Failure to develop a detailed estate plan can cause unnecessary headaches for your loved ones during a difficult time.
At Marcus Jarvis & Associates, P.C., we recognize everyone's situation is unique. Therefore, we create personalized estate plans for individuals throughout the Minneapolis/Saint Paul metro area. When you meet with us, we will take the time to truly understand your situation, including what is most important to you, in order to build a plan that suits your needs.
Comprehensive Estate Planning Services
Everyone's estate planning concerns are different. Some people want to specify distribution of their assets when they die, as well as reduce gift and estate taxes for their heirs. Others are looking for assistance in planning future medical decisions. Still others wish to ensure their children have money set aside for college.
When you visit with us, we will discuss your circumstances and goals. Then, our firm will suggest estate planning tools that would be most beneficial to you, including:
- Wills
- Trusts
- Power of Attorney (POA)

We also handle cases in probate.
Who Needs an Estate Plan?
Every adult needs an estate plan. Without it, you risk your wishes not being carried out when you are unable to communicate them. For example, if you die intestate, meaning dying without a will, the state will determine what happens to your assets without your input. Don't make the mistake of putting off estate planning. Make protecting yourself and your family a priority.
