Estate Planning

Estate planning is often seen as a mere hassle that should be handled with little fanfare or consideration. Some individuals may feel that it is enough to execute a Last Will and Testament, and this practice is quite common. In truth, however, everyone stands to benefit from comprehensive estate planning services that consider one’s financial circumstances, distribution preferences, risk considerations, and other personal and estate-related concerns.

Attorney Jae H. Lee is committed to the provision of comprehensive, individualized estate planning, administration, and litigation services. Mr. Lee has extensive experience working with a range of individuals, including those who have complex or otherwise unusual estate planning concerns, such as business owners.

Here at the Law Office of Jae H. Lee, PLLC, we offer free, no-obligation, one-hour initial consultations, and many of our estate planning services are available at a flat rate. Mr. Lee is a strategic advocate who understands the importance of cost-effective, creative estate planning solutions.  Contact us today for further information or to speak to a New York estate planning attorney.

Comprehensive Estate Planning, Administration, and Litigation Services

We offer a full range of estate planning services, from transactional offerings (i.e., execution of a comprehensive suite of estate planning documents) to representation for various administrative and litigation-related issues. These include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:

•    Asset Protection Planning
•    Business Planning
•    Estate Litigation
•    Estate Planning
•    Probate

We do more than just document creation and planning. Every decision we make takes into account the possibility of a conflict down the road. Estate conflicts are, unfortunately, not at all uncommon. In some cases — particularly those where the deceased individual did not create a comprehensive and well-executed estate plan — the heirs may argue over the asset distribution. There may be also latent issues relating to creditor claims and administrative hassles.

Here at the Law Office of Jae H. Lee, we are equipped to handle your estate concerns from end-to-end, whether you need help developing an estate plan, or representation during complex estate litigation.

Customized Solutions to a Range of Planning Needs

Truly comprehensive estate planning is about more than just the distribution of assets after one’s death.  For example, with the assistance of a qualified New York estate planning lawyer, you can assign a willing family member or friend to manage your assets, direct your healthcare decisions, create a trust to fund your child’s education, and/or restructure your assets in the event that you are rendered psychologically incompetent.

When we work with clients on building a comprehensive estate plan, we account for all the personal, family, financial, and business-related factors that are likely to influence the creation of their overall plan. We identify possible areas of potential for minimizing your tax liabilities, protecting assets from creditors, avoiding excessive and time-consuming procedures (such as probate, if desired), and managing assets in trusts so as to ensure the adequate care of loved ones.
