Wills & Probate

Colorado Estate Planning Lawyers - Denver Probate Attorneys

For reliable advice and creative solutions to your estate planning problems, contact the Denver wills and trusts lawyers at Inman Flynn. Whether your primary concern involves a smooth transfer of assets to the next generation, protection in the event of your incapacity, or minimizing taxes on a substantial estate, our experienced estate planning attorneys can help you meet your objectives through instruments tailored to your specific needs.

Estate Planning. Our wills and trusts attorneys can prepare your will and powers of attorney that designate trusted persons to manage your financial and health care needs during any period of incapacity or legal incompetence. We also draft declarations as to medical or surgical treatment (Living Wills) in order to advise physicians of the circumstances under which you intend the suspension of extraordinary efforts to keep you alive. Our Denver estate planning attorneys can also advise you about the special considerations that apply to certain assets - for example, whether to transfer out-of-state real property to a living trust so as to simplify the probate process.

Estate Administration. When the time comes to administer the decedent's estate, we provide prompt and responsive service with respect to notifying heirs and creditors, marshalling assets, distributing bequests, paying debts and handling claims, paying taxes as necessary, and preparing the accountings and reports on behalf of the personal representative. Our Denver probate attorneys can also represent personal representatives of Colorado estates on a remote basis, so if you live outside of the state, we can help you discharge your responsibilities while minimizing the need for you to return to Colorado.

Probate Litigation. When a question arises as to the genuine character of a will, the testamentary capacity of the decedent, or the status of an heir, our Colorado probate litigation attorneys can represent either the personal representative or a challenging party.
