estate planning
Dealing with the loss of a loved one is often highly emotional and stressful, and not knowing what to do with the deceased's estate poses an extra burden to the mourning family. The emotional trauma because of the death of a loved one is often accompanied by a confusion of which legal and financial steps the survivors must follow to take over the estate, especially if there is no will.

Imagine the pain of burying a loved one and still having to wade through succession battles in the family thereafter. If there is a will left by the departed loved one, an estate planning attorney would help in overseeing the takeover. When there is no will; however, the laws of the State of Oregon take control in determining how assets are to be divided and even who may apply to the court to handle the estate.

Have you lost a loved one recently? Did they have a sudden illness or accident, which ended their life way too soon? When a tragedy like that takes place, it is hard to think about the next steps to take. It's hard to even think about the future when dealing with your emotional loss. At the same time; however, the bills still keep coming in, creditors want to be paid, and the loved ones left behind still need to be cared for.
