Protecting Your Legacy

When preparing for the future, estate planning is crucial beyond mere financial considerations. It involves making decisions about your assets and personal care for scenarios where you may be unable to do so yourself due to incapacitation or death. Peek Goldstone, LLC recognizes the importance of this process and is dedicated to guiding individuals and families through the complexities of estate planning.

Why is estate planning so vital? At its core, it serves as a protective shield for your hard-earned property. Without a clear plan, the distribution of assets may default to statutory provisions that don't account for your unique circumstances or personal preferences. This can lead to outcomes that don't align with your wishes and may trigger conflicts among surviving loved ones. Estate planning is, therefore, a proactive measure to ensure that your assets are distributed according to your desires, fostering peace of mind for you and your family.

Our Erie estate planning lawyers understand that every client's situation is unique. We carefully consider individual circumstances and preferences. Our approach involves providing tailored options that align with your specific needs and offering comprehensive support to navigate the legal intricacies of estate planning. When you choose us, you're not just getting legal assistance but gaining a partner committed to untangling complexities and providing clarity.

Take the first step in safeguarding your legacy. Contact our experienced Erie estate planning attorneys today at (720) 614-5250.

Considering Estate Planning Strategies

Estate planning is more than a legal process; it's a strategic approach to safeguarding your legacy and protecting your assets and personal decision-making. 

Below are various estate planning vehicles and processes:

  • Wills: A well-drafted will is a legal document outlining how your property and possessions should be distributed upon passing. Our team works closely with clients to craft wills reflecting their unique circumstances and preferences.
  • Trusts: Trusts provide flexibility, control, and privacy, allowing individuals to outline specific conditions for the disbursement of assets. Our estate planning lawyers are adept at tailoring trust strategies to meet the diverse needs of our clients.
  • Powers of Attorney: When individuals cannot voice their wishes due to incapacitation, powers of attorney become instrumental. These legal documents grant authority to a designated person to make healthcare and financial decisions on behalf of the individual.
  • Probate: Probate involves validating a will (if one has been established) and distributing assets according to an individual's wishes or state laws. This intricate process can be challenging, emphasizing the necessity of legal counsel.

We are ready to provide insightful legal counsel, tailored solutions, and unwavering support.

Benefits of Estate Planning

Estate planning helps protect your legacy and allows your assets to be distributed according to your wishes. 

Preparing for your future can be beneficial in several ways:

  • Minimizing tax implications for heirs: Estate planning isn't just about preserving assets; it's about reducing the financial burden on your heirs. Effective strategies can mitigate tax implications, allowing more of your legacy to reach the intended recipients rather than being absorbed by taxes.
  • Providing for a smoother transfer of assets: A well-crafted estate plan facilitates a seamless transfer of assets, minimizing complexities and making the distribution process more straightforward.
  • Establishing medical directives: Beyond financial considerations, estate planning encompasses healthcare directives, allowing an individual’s wishes regarding medical treatment and end-of-life decisions to be clearly articulated. These directives also offer comfort and guidance to loved ones during challenging times.

Working with an Attorney

Considering an estate planning strategy is a delicate process demanding attention to detail and strategic guidance. Peek Goldstone, LLC can be your dedicated partner in navigating this complex terrain.

Our approach begins with a personalized consultation with one of our estate planning lawyers in Erie. This initial meeting is crucial to understanding your circumstances, goals, and concerns. We will carefully assess your needs, providing insights into effective strategies to secure your legacy.

Once the foundation is laid during the consultation, the next step involves gathering pertinent financial and personal information. From assets and liabilities to personal preferences and family dynamics, we leave no stone unturned in crafting a comprehensive estate plan.

With a thorough understanding of your unique circumstances, we then draft and review legal documents. Wills, trusts, powers of attorney–each document is crafted with precision to align with your wishes and provide a legally sound foundation for the distribution of your assets.

    "Amanda Peek and Scott Goldstone are the absolute best in Colorado!!!!"
    Amanda Peek and Scott Goldstone are the absolute best in Colorado!!!! I could not ask for better attorneys. Thank you everyone on the Peek Goldstone team for all of the hard work you do. You all are awesome! Mr. Scott Goldstone has been my attorney since 2015. During the storms I have had to go through in order to have a relationship with my son, Scott has flawlessly guided and advised me through it all. I had the chance to work with Amanda as well, and she is just as wonderful as Scott. I would not be where I am at today with my son if it wasn't for Scott and Amanda. Thank you both so much for everything you have done and are continuing to do for my son and I. I am very grateful to have the both of you in my life. A huge shout out to all of the paralegals and other staff members working for the law office of Peek Goldstone. Everytime I call the office, you are very professional and helpful!

    "I highly recommend Brian Klein at Peek Goldstone"
    Having received poor advice from a different law office and attorney, I was feeling distressed due to the criminal charges made against me. Seeing an ad for Peek Goldstone in my local paper, I gave them a call. Right from the initial consultation I knew I had found the right person for the job! Brian Klein treated me with respect and was nothing short of brilliant in his ability to leave no stone unturned in order to represent me in the best possible light. Will you have to pay for his services? Yes. Will it be worth it? Yes! I highly recommend Brian Klein at Peek Goldstone for your criminal case.

        "Very knowledgeable and easy to talk to."

        Throughout my divorce and custody proceedings Scott has offered excellent legal advice and ensured that I was well informed of my options and the next steps in the process. He has provided realistic expectations and treated myself, as well as my family, with respect and understanding.

        Scott is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I strongly recommend Scott to anyone in need of high- caliber legal representation.

        "Amanda didn’t flinch and was willing to get right into working for me."
        I had gone to numerous other divorce/child custody lawyers and they were intimidated by the judge and my ex-wife's attorney. Some attorneys even said they couldn’t help me. Amanda didn’t flinch and was willing to get right into working for me.

        - Kevin
        "I could not have asked for better representation."

        Came to Scott with a very difficult case where opposing party already had a few victories thanks to another attorney I hired that did not do so great and I needed them reversed.

        Scott diligently set out to get them corrected. One by one they all fell. All the while he was VERY good at keeping me informed of the process and ensuring that he was going after just what I wanted. I could not have asked for better representation.

        "They understood my exact needs!"
        Monique did an amazing job representing me throughout my case. She understood exactly what I wanted/needed to resolve my case. She took the time to explain all possible outcomes, even the ones not favorable to me in order to prepare me for whatever might happen in court. Monique did a fantastic job and would highly recommend her for your legal needs. The entire office staff were friendly and helpful. They were very responsive when I contacted them referencing my case.
