These are variety of services that allow for an attorney to guide you through your case while you maintain control of the case.

It would also include coaching and writing arguments for you to present in court.

The most simple answer is so you and not a court can dictate what happens to all of your belongings after you pass away. If you don’t prepare an estate plan, your most valued possessions may end up going to someone you never wanted to have your valued possessions.
Sometimes, however, your goal might be to avoid your loved ones having to go through a lengthy court process. While, wills still have to go through the probate process, there are a variety of creative planning options your can use to avoid probate and have the process be much quicker for your loved ones. This can be accomplished through a pour-over will which “pours” everything left at the time of your death into a trust to distributed according to the terms of the trust. It may also just simply be accomplished through putting everything in a trust before you pass away. Finally, it could also be accomplished through transfer on death deeds, and payable on death designations (finally another option, for married people a community property agreement).
In addition, planning for incapacity is vital. In the event that you become incapacitated and unable to manage your financial affairs and/or healthcare decisions, you will want someone you feel safe with deciding those things, to jump right in. What you probably don’t want to happen is the alternative: someone being appointed by court, after going through a cumbersome process, to handle your affairs. This may not always be the person you would appoint in a durable power of attorney.
Jordan also does faith based estate planning, which has its own important considerations, that other types of planning don’t.
While Jordan can help with almost any type of estate planning to help fit your needs, she does not do high net-worth estate planning currently in the $12/13 million plus range (federal exemption limit for estate tax) because this often has specific tax considerations.
Jordan is also able to help with opening and closing probate with some advice as needed in between.
I offer pay as you go, flat fee methods, as well as sliding scale options if needed. I offer pay as you go because it is often more affordable for people than requiring thousands of dollars up front.
