Empty Nesters

Even though your children are grown and independent, you still want to protect them and ensure their future is secure. An updated estate plan is crucial for making things easier for them and ensuring your wishes are carried out. The Parents Estate Planning Law Firm specializes in helping parents who are navigating the “empty nester” stage
of life.

Whether you need to create a new estate plan or review your existing documents, now is the perfect time to ensure everything is up to date. We can help you 
establish a plan for your assets and ensure your decisions will be respected if you become incapacitated.

Estate Planning in
Massachusetts

Massachusetts estate planning laws differ in many respects from other states and have nuances that need the expertise and attention of an experienced Massachusetts estate planning lawyer.

Having a personal lawyer helping you with the estate planning process from the beginning will help ensure that all elements of your plan are consistent and work well together and that your priorities are accurately reflected in your estate plan. Any mistakes in your plan could end up costing your family more money, and lead to delays and inconvenience if you die.

Questions from
Empty Nesters

We often help empty nesters navigate important questions about 
securing their family’s future and protecting their assets. Common questions 
we address  include:

  • How can I avoid probate
  • What documents should I have in place in case I don’t die, but become incapacitated?
  • How can I ensure that the right people are managing my money when I am no longer able to?
  • What steps can I take to ensure my vacation home or other assets are passed down for the next generation?
  • How often should I be reviewing my estate plan?

Many empty nesters also want to leave behind meaningful stories and advice for their children and grandchildren. We can help you to leave the stories who make you who you are – the stories your children and grandchildren will cherish for years to come.
