RICHARD M. KNELLINGER: You need estate planning, perhaps when you're 27 and have your first child or when you're 87 and you want to protect your wealth for your grandchildren and provide for their educations.

RICHARD M. KNELLINGER: There are many different reasons that people need estate planning. And it's only by examining their goals and their joys in life that you help them to understand how they can protect those.

Estate planning and probate are inextricably intertwined. Probate is the process of taking assets, paying bills and giving what is left to the beneficiaries.

In our estate planning, we try to design the documentation in such a way that probate is as brief and inexpensive as possible.

Clients understand the long-term goals. They understand what they want to achieve. But sometimes it takes an innovative approach to be certain that those goals are met and at this firm that's what we focus on.
