Estate Planning in St. George

At Weekes Law, we provide comprehensive estate planning services to individuals and families in St. George, Utah, helping you secure your legacy and protect your assets for the next generation.

Why Estate Planning is Important

Estate planning is more than just writing a will—it’s about ensuring that your wishes are respected, your loved ones are protected, and your estate is distributed according to your desires. Without a proper estate plan in place, the distribution of your assets may be left to the courts, which could lead to unnecessary delays, legal battles, and unintended outcomes.

Our Estate Planning Services

At Weekes Law, we offer a range of estate planning services to meet your unique needs. Whether you’re looking for a simple will or need a more comprehensive trust-based plan, we can help. Our services include:

1. Wills

A last will and testament outlines how your assets should be distributed after your passing. It also allows you to name a guardian for minor children. We’ll help you create a legally valid will that reflects your wishes and protects your loved ones.

2. Trusts

Trusts can be a powerful tool for estate planning, helping to minimize probate, protect privacy, and reduce taxes. Whether you’re considering a revocable living trust or an irrevocable trust, we can guide you through the process and help you select the right option for your situation.

3. Powers of Attorney

A power of attorney allows someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. We assist with both financial and health care powers of attorney, ensuring that your wishes are carried out during your lifetime if you are unable to act for yourself.

4. Advance Health Care Directives

An advance health care directive (living will) lets you specify your medical care preferences if you are unable to communicate your decisions. We help you draft clear instructions to ensure that your wishes are known and followed by your healthcare providers and loved ones.

5. Probate and Estate Administration

If you’re dealing with the probate process or need help administering a loved one’s estate, we can assist with navigating the legal complexities and ensuring that the estate is settled efficiently and according to the law.
