Our firm is also known for its comprehensive estate services. BridgehouseLaw LLP serves as a full-service Estate Law Firm NC, supporting clients from the creation of wills and trusts through estate administration and probate.

Why You Need an Estate Plan

Creating a valid will or trust ensures your assets are distributed according to your preferences. Without these documents, intestate succession laws determine inheritance – and the outcome may not reflect your wishes. Our attorneys assist with:

• Drafting wills that comply with state laws

• Creating revocable and irrevocable trusts

• Naming guardians for minor children

• Avoiding probate through trust-based planning

• Minimizing estate taxes and delays

• Updating estate documents after life changes

Moreover, our Wills and Trusts Attorneys collaborate with CPAs and financial advisors to provide coordinated, tax-efficient estate plans.

Wills vs. Trusts: What’s the Difference?

Although both tools are essential in estate planning, they serve different purposes.

• Wills are legal documents that express your wishes after death and must go through probate.

• Trusts allow for asset distribution without probate and can take effect during your lifetime.

Our Estate Attorneys and Wills and Trusts Attorneys will help you determine which option – or combination – is right for your situation.

Support Through Probate and Estate Administration

Even with a well-drafted trust, some estates require probate. Our experienced Probate Attorneys help executors and heirs manage probate efficiently. We also support court filings, inventory management, debt resolution, and property transfers.

If you’re already in the process of administering an estate, a skilled Estate Administration Lawyer can guide you through the paperwork and court deadlines. Our team ensures accuracy and reduces stress during a challenging time.

For estates without a will, we also offer support from our Intestate Succession Attorneys. These cases follow a specific legal formula and benefit from early legal intervention.

An experienced Estate Administration Lawyer will help reduce stress, avoid costly mistakes, and comply with all legal deadlines.
