Top Reasons to Hire an Attorney to Establish an Estate Plan

Creating an estate plan may sound like an overwhelming process. It’s really not as intimidating as it may seem with the help of the right estate planning attorney near the Lake of the Ozarks. Here at O’Donnell Law Center, we pride ourselves on creating a comfortable and convenient place for you and your entire family (if you so wish) to create and solidify your estate plan. Take a look at a few of the reasons you should hire an estate planning attorney to create and establish an estate plan on your behalf.


Legally Sound Documents
It’s important to ensure your estate planning documents are legally sound, and an estate planning attorney can make sure that they are. The right documentation can help keep your assets out of probate court and allow your beneficiaries easier and quicker access to them, when the time comes for your estate plan to be carried out.

Easily Update Wishes
An attorney can help you make updates to your estate plan. Unexpected circumstances come up and we understand that. That’s why we make it easy to adjust your estate plan. When you and your family go through a life change, it’s best to re-evaluate your estate plan to ensure all information is the way that it should be.

Legal Advice
There may be some tax and legal implications that go along with planning your end of life wishes. A lawyer helping you put together your estate plan can help ensure you are fully aware of all of your options and the potential repercussions of each option.

Ease of Document Access
Having your documents in a safe, but easily accessible location is a good idea. If these estate planning documents are ever needed, your loved ones should know how to access them.  Your lawyer can help you talk through a plan for establishing a location to store your document until it’s time to put your plan into action.


Estate planning and end of life decisions are not always the first topic that people choose to discuss, but our Lake of the Ozarks attorney helps to make the process productive and easy to implement. We work hard to provide the best environment for you and your family to establish an estate plan in Camden County, MO.
