Estate Attorneys in Chicago, IL

How to choose an estate attorney in Chicago

Start with what you need: a simple will, a living trust, powers of attorney, or probate after a death. Not every attorney does all four. Check that the attorney is licensed in your state, since estate law is state-specific. Ask how they charge: many quote a flat fee for a will or trust package and an hourly rate for probate. Ask how they'll work with your financial advisor and accountant, because a plan that isn't coordinated is a plan that breaks. Finally, pick someone you'd be comfortable calling in a bad week. Your family will be dealing with them, not you.
