Succession & Estate Planning

What We Do

Succession & Estate Planning

At The Marzella Law Group, PLLC, our Estates and Trust practice group is involved in all aspects of estate and trust planning and administration, from preparing basic estate planning documents to planning and implementing complex needs trusts, to planning the transfer of wealth and asset preservation. We provide full, personalized estate and trust planning and administration services. We counsel beneficiaries and fiduciaries of estates and trusts on their rights and duties and we form and advise tax-exempt entities.

We understand and are respectful of the sensitive family relationships that planning and estate evokes. We help our clients focus on passing family wealth in an efficient and practical manner. We want to develop and maintain close, long term relationships with clients so that families are comfortable with our firm, and trust that we will support their family in difficult times. Our clients know that they are receiving sound and practical advice based on our decades of practice and real life experience.  For a Complimentary Analysis of your Estate Plan, click here.
