At Tamashiro Sogi & Bonner, ALC, we believe that “estate planning” involves more than just creating a Will or a Trust.  It should be available to everyone, regardless of wealth.  A well-crafted estate plan can do more than just divide up your assets.  It can allow you to nominate trusted loved ones, friends, or professionals, who can help to manage your finances or otherwise act in your best interests in the event of serious illness or death.  It can also allow you to plan for potential medical expenses related to your long-term care or the special needs of a loved one.

Our office understands that each person’s needs are unique.  We are sensitive to the fact that the estate planning process involves major life decisions that are not easy to make.  We don’t take any case for granted.  We strive to maintain a collaborative relationship with our clients to ensure a plan reflects their current wishes.  We take the time to get to know each of our clients, and use our years of experience to better guide them through these important decisions.

Unfortunately, life is sometimes unpredictable and planning in advance may not always be an option.  Sometimes family members may be unable to make health or financial decisions for themselves, and court proceedings may be necessary to ensure that person is taken care of.  In other cases, a representative may be necessary to ensure a deceased loved one’s finances can be properly managed.
