Naperville Estate Planning Attorney

DuPage County Estate Planning Lawyer for Trust Preparation and Living Wills

At Lindell & Tessitore, P.C., we help individuals take the sometimes difficult but always necessary steps towards creating an effective estate plan. We understand that estate planning can be an emotional process for many people, and we offer clients professionalism and compassion.

Preparation of Wills and Trusts

Making the proper legal preparations for your loved ones should you pass away is a final expression of love. Wills and trusts provide for the distribution of your assets and personal property according to your wishes. They help beneficiaries avoid an arduous probate process. Having an effective estate plan in place will save your beneficiaries time and money during a difficult time. Our firm handles all aspects of estate planning including:

• Preparation of wills and testamentary dispositions
• Preparation of trusts, including children’s trusts, revocable and irrevocable trusts, and family and marital trusts

At every step of the process, we will explain your options and offer guidance where needed. If you have minor children or other dependents, we can work with you to ensure they are provided for and handle issues of guardianship.

Powers of Attorney and Advance Directives

Proper estate planning goes beyond making arrangements for your death; it also includes making arrangements for your possible incapacitation. Attorney Dennis Lindell is experienced in assisting individuals in planning for health care crises. We help clients prepare living wills, also known as advance directives, that detail their wishes for medical treatment in the event they are unable to express themselves. We also prepare health care powers of attorney to designate a trusted individual to make health care decisions for you if you are unable to make them for yourself.
