Kernersville Estate Planning Lawyer

The most difficult thing in life is to plan for the unknown and the inevitable. No one likes to discuss their death or what will happen to their assets once they die, but it is an important discussion that you should have not only with your family but also with an estate planning attorney.
Creating an estate plan gives you peace of mind knowing that your affairs are in order and that your family doesn’t have to make difficult decisions upon your death. It also helps your family avoid disagreements about your assets since your wishes are spelled out in writing.

WHAT IS AN ESTATE PLANNING ATTORNEY?

An estate planning attorney is a professional who has an understanding of the state and federal laws that govern how an estate is to be valued, taxed, and dispersed upon your death. An estate planning attorney near me makes it easier for you to create a will, a trust, powers of attorneys, name beneficiaries, adopt a child, and ensure that your assets are protected upon your death.
When you are ready to create an estate plan, no matter your age or stage of life, it’s important that you call an experienced estate planning attorney from Apple Payne Law. Our dedicated and compassionate team will review your documents, listen to your wishes, and help you create an estate plan that reflects how you want your estate to be handled, who you want to receive your assets, and who will be the guardian of your children should you die before they turn 18.

At Apple Payne Law, we pledge to you prompt and courteous service, whether we are able to accept your case or not.

What are the Components of an Estate Plan?

A proper estate plan covers four major documents, each with its own unique purpose and role. Our estate plans include:

  • Will — To distribute your property in the way YOU want after you pass (otherwise, the state’s “default” rules apply to YOUR estate).
  • Power of Attorney — Allows a person(s) you choose to handle your affairs if you are unable to do so yourself (i.e. property, bills, taxes, etc.) due to severe illness, incapacity.
  • Living Will — (or Advance Health Care Directive) Specifies what your wishes are in regards to terminal care (i.e. feed tubes, do not resuscitate orders, etc.).
  • Health Care Power of Attorney — Allows a person(s) you choose to make healthcare decisions for you if you are unable to do so yourself due to severe illness, incapacity.

Our firm is flexible with our clients to meet their legal needs. We also never close a file until the finished product meets the client’s expectations. We come from hard-working backgrounds and will work our hardest to help you get a satisfactory resolution in your case.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Ron is wonderful! Last year I experienced I experienced something that I did not even know existed. Constructive Eviction. I needed help immediately in order to get the construction stopped so that I could get back into my house, pack, and move. Talks with Ron fortified me with information and the power to speak up to the injustice. And his letters to the new owners clarified the situation and called them out on the many violations of the law. I do not know how I would have gotten through those months without Ron’s powerful, wise counsel. I highly recommend him. Thank you so very much Ron!

Mahhava M.

The interactions with Ron and his team were extremely thorough. Ron even took his time to review piece by piece each section of the estate documents being prepared and even elaborated with examples when something was not clear (without the need for me to continue asking). It was refreshing to receive that kind of service for someone like myself who is interested in knowing all of the details. Overall, very nice to work with and easy to talk to over the phone/virtually.

Jeanette V.

Ron is knowledgeable, honest, fair, and supportive. He gives informed advice and goes out of his way for his clients. His firm is affordable and will work with you on payment. He offers a wide variety of services, and while he handled my child support case, he handles much more!

Kyle D.

Mr. Payne helped us out very quickly in our time of need and met with us. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Travis B.

We were able to get a consultation appointment very quickly. Mr. Ash was very professional, provided services very timely, and fees were reasonable.
