The Estate Planning Firm Down the Road in Topsfield
Topsfield is a town of families and land. Our main office is on Route 1, so the work stays local and personal.
Topsfield is a town of families and land, working farms, homes set on acreage, and properties that have stayed in the same family across generations. Those are exactly the situations where a thoughtful estate plan protects both the property and the relationships around it.
Our main office is right here in Topsfield, on Route 1, so the practical details are familiar. We help families choose between wills and trusts, keep a home or farm out of probate, plan for blended families so everyone is provided for clearly, and plan around the Massachusetts estate tax that applies to estates over two million dollars.
We also help Topsfield families plan ahead for aging parents, with powers of attorney, health care proxies, and Medicaid planning, and we step in when a loved one passes, handling probate and estate administration through the Essex Probate and Family Court so the family doesn't have to navigate the court alone.
One conversation gives you a clear picture of where you stand. No pressure, no obligation. Initial consultation: $250.
