Regardless of your age or financial status, Long, Claypole & Blakley Law, PLC in Enid has the knowledge and dedication to create a legacy tailored to your goals and principles. Through a detailed discussion of estate planning solutions such as wills, trusts and advance directives, our seasoned Oklahoma attorneys will help you find the best way to preserve your assets, transfer your property, control your medical treatment and establish provisions that safeguard your children. Hesitating in these matters could have serious consequences. We ease the process for you so you can put an effective program in place.
Our firm’s attorneys have eight decades of combined legal experience, and we use what we’ve learned to deliver strong guidance on any matter relating to wills, such as:
It’s never too soon to safeguard your family’s security and set forth clear terms regarding the disposition of your assets. We make the process easy.
Placing assets in a trust can serve a variety of needs. After discussing your goals, our knowledgeable lawyers demonstrate how one of these legal instruments can fund a charitable cause, reduce taxes or ensure that your assets are used according to your directions. For clients who want their heirs to skip the probate process, we establish living trusts. These arrangements enable the grantor to retain access to their property for the rest of their life.
Guardianships are established to protect disabled adults and children whose parents are deceased or unable to care for them. When parents are planning their estate, we outline the factors that should be considered and draft clear documents so that clients can have peace of mind about their children’s future no matter what happens. Our firm also assists in situations where disabled adults cannot meet their legal obligations or personal needs effectively.
If you’re suddenly incapacitated by an illness or injury, even the people closest to you might not be sure about your medical treatment choices. Executing a durable power of attorney document beforehand can ensure that your wishes are honored and communicated by someone you trust. We help individuals and families prepare these types of advance directives in addition to living wills, which state the specific types of extraordinary care that you want and don’t want if a medical condition makes you unable to communicate your wishes.
