Estate Planning

"Death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate."

Kermisch & Paletz LLP helps families preserve their wealth for future generations, minimize estate taxes, and avoid the expenses and nightmare of probate through the use of Living Trusts, Wills and other Estate Planning tools. When you contact us, we want you to feel comfortable discussing these important issues concerning you and your family. Our estate planning focuses on the two most important things in our client’s lives: everything they own and everyone they love. Our clients share their hopes, dreams, values and goals; we listen and help them understand their options.

We want to give you the information you need to make informed decisions about your family's future. We work with our clients to design personalized plans that reflect their own unique situation. The result of such careful planning is an estate plan that works. Our plans promote harmony within the family and provide a lasting legacy that will continue to reflect our clients' values and ideals for generations to come.

We start with the premise that every estate, regardless of size, is an important one. Whatever the size of your estate, you have spent your life accumulating it and want to preserve it from unnecessary taxes and administration fees and costs so that you can plan in a meaningful way for those you care about. Our commitment is to offer quality and caring legal services, whether through advice or instruments, to ensure that you achieve your goals in an individualized yet cost-effective way. We help you achieve your dreams, no matter what happens.
