The Vermont Trusts, Estates, and Probate law attorneys at MSK provide a depth of experience that enables our clients to navigate complex Trusts, Estates, and Probate transactions.
Wills and Trusts
MSK assists individuals and couples in planning for the transfer of assets at the time of death through various means, including wills, revocable trusts, and special-purpose deeds. MSK helps clients transfer assets efficiently upon their death (avoiding probate if desired) while maintaining control for the rest of the client’s lifetime.
Durable Powers of Attorney and Advance Directives for Healthcare and End of Life
MSK helps clients plan for the future with durable powers of attorney, nominating family or friends to make decisions on the client’s behalf in the event the client becomes incapacitated. MSK also assists with advance directives, providing advance instructions regarding the client’s healthcare wishes and nominating healthcare proxies to make decisions for the client if necessary.
Probate Administration
MSK represents clients serving as executors of the estates of deceased individuals, guiding clients through the probate process efficiently and at the least possible expense. Aside from advising executors, MSK provides representation and advice to estate beneficiaries—individuals who stand to receive part of the estate—ensuring the clients’ interests are protected. MSK also represents estate creditors in securing payment of sums due from deceased individuals.
Trust and Estate Litigation
MSK represents clients in disputes relating to trusts and the estates of deceased individuals, including will contests, disputes over the validity of trusts and wills, the interpretation of wills or trust agreements, and misuse of estate property.
