Estate Planning

Your Legacy, Your Way

At The Schellert Law Firm, LLC in St. Charles, Missouri, our estate planning attorney can ensure that your affairs are in order, and that your estate is passed on according to your wishes.

As you estate planning attorney, Ryan Schellert can help you take stock of your current estate, meaning all assets, belongings, property, insurance policies, and investments. We will guide you in designating your preference for distributing these assets through the use of wills and trusts, including revocable trusts.

When you pass away, it won't be easy on those you leave behind. They will have much to deal with. You can ease their burden during this difficult time by creating an estate plan now. While planning a last will and testament, it is advisable to establish a power of attorney and a living will to make your wishes known in the event you become incapacitated.

An estate plan empowers you to make decisions that might otherwise be made in probate court, and contrary to your intent. In the absence of wills, the probate court distributes estates by statute. Don't let this happen to you, and don't let your indecision now affect your loved ones later.

Estate planning is about more than creating wills to pass along your money; it's about your health, and your ability to maintain control. If you should be become incapacitated, what are your wishes? If you can't tell the doctor how to proceed, who should speak for you? Whose voice will articulate your intent?

An estate planning lawyer at The Schellert Law Firm, LLC can help you put your plan in place.

We offer a free initial consultation to all clients. We can meet with you during normal business hours, as well as on evenings and weekends by appointment. We also offer flexible payment plans, so contact us now for the legal advice you need regarding wills, trusts, and other estate planning tools.
