Meet Douglas

Back when lawyers had to use carbon paper to copy contracts and legal briefs, my grandfather had his own practice. With strong family ties to the legal profession, my interest in law was sparked from a young age.

About Douglas B. Price

Frequently Asked Questions

Find clear answers to common questions about our legal services.

  • What is the difference between a will and a living trust?

    Understanding the difference between a will and a living trust is essential for effective planning. A will outlines how your assets should be distributed after your passing and must go through probate court. A living trust, however, takes effect immediately during your lifetime and allows your assets to bypass probate entirely, saving your family time and money. Both tools have unique benefits depending on your estate size and family dynamic. We can help you determine which option best fits your needs. Reach out to our team today to begin crafting your customized plan.

  • How can I protect my assets from going through probate?

    Avoiding probate is a primary goal for many families because the process can be lengthy and expensive. The most effective way to protect your assets is by establishing a revocable living trust, which keeps your estate private and out of court. Additionally, you can designate beneficiaries on financial accounts and use joint ownership for real estate. We specialize in implementing these strategies to ensure a seamless transition of wealth to your heirs. Let us help you protect your hard-earned assets. Call our office today to discuss your asset protection options.

  • When is the best time to update my estate planning documents?

    We recommend reviewing your estate plan every three to five years or whenever you experience a major life event. Significant changes such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or the loss of a loved one can dramatically impact your wishes. Additionally, moving to a new state or experiencing a substantial shift in your financial situation warrants an immediate update. We are here to help you keep your documents current and legally sound. Contact our dedicated legal team today to review and update your existing estate plan.

  • What happens if I die without a will or trust?

    Passing away without a plan means your assets will be distributed according to state laws, a process known as intestate succession. This means the court, not you, decides who inherits your estate, which may not align with your true wishes. It can also lead to family disputes, high legal fees, and administrative delays for your loved ones during an already difficult time. We can help you avoid these complications by creating a comprehensive plan tailored to your desires. Protect your family's future today by reaching out to us to schedule a consultation.
