Wills & Living Trusts

It seems to be human nature that most of us tend to procrastinate about making or updating our Wills and Estate Planning. However, the problems left for family and friends to sort out when there is no Will or Estate Planning are an unnecessary burden. Many people will use the phrase..."if I die.., when they should be saying..."when I die...". A comedian once said about life..."we're not going to get out of here alive you know!" So accepting such sage advice, we should prepare for the inevitable and make sure that OUR wishes are carried out and not those of the state or the law makers.

What most people don't realize is that YOU HAVE A WILL/ESTATE PLAN, WHETHER YOU CHOOSE TO OR NOT. At Russo, Darnell & Lodato, LLP, we are committed to the highest standards of quality and responsiveness to our clients' needs. Since many people have many different needs, we invite you to take a moment and examine the enclosed documents and see what can happen when an individual either does his own Estate Planning or does no Estate Planning whatsoever.

If you already have a Will or Estate Plan, then you should also ensure that it is reviewed at least every five years to make sure that it continues to reflect your wishes and complies with the latest developments in the continuing battle to save as many dollars as possible from the tax man.

At Russo, Darnell & Lodato, LLP we continue to stress a cooperative approach to our practice and a personal and open relationship with our clients. These characteristics, together with our thorough knowledge of Estate Planning and our expertise in new and specialized areas of practice, enables us to respond flexibly and effectively to the challenges facing our clients.
