Your questions

Answers that bring clarity.

  • What’s the difference between a will and a trust?

    A will outlines how your assets should be distributed after your passing and goes through probate. A trust allows assets to pass directly to beneficiaries, avoiding probate and providing greater flexibility and privacy.

  • How do I ensure my assets avoid probate?

    The best way to avoid probate is by setting up a revocable living trust, naming beneficiaries on accounts, and utilizing joint ownership where appropriate. Our firm helps you develop a strategy tailored to your estate.

  • What happens if I don’t have an estate plan?

    If you don’t have an estate plan, New Mexico’s intestacy laws will determine how your assets are distributed, which may not align with your wishes. This can also lead to unnecessary delays and legal expenses for your loved ones.

  • How do powers of attorney work in New Mexico?

    A power of attorney (POA) allows you to designate a trusted person to handle financial or healthcare decisions if you become incapacitated. Without a POA, your family may have to seek court approval to manage your affairs.

  • How do I get started with estate planning?

    The first step is a consultation with an estate planning attorney to discuss your assets, goals, and family needs. We’ll guide you through the necessary documents and help you build a plan that gives you peace of mind.
