Our Reputation Stands Alone

Want to Preserve Your Georgia Estate & Legacy for Future Generations?

The Farrell Law Firm delivers a personalized strategy when helping our clients plan their estates.

At the Farrell Law Firm, we help you achieve your unique goals in estate planning, whether that includes providing for a loved one with special needs, preserving your child’s inheritance after divorce, or documenting your healthcare wishes in the event that you become disabled.

We can do this because we never take a one-size-fits-all approach to crafting an estate plan. We custom-tailor an estate plan for you.

When considering end-of-life scenarios, careful estate planning can be as important as accumulating wealth was in the first place. The goal of financial certainty and control should not collapse due to an unforeseen event, lapse in health, or untimely passing.

Through foresightful estate planning, our clients can protect and preserve their assets for chosen beneficiaries. Thereafter, those assets can be transferred during life or upon death to achieve a set of pre-established goals.

At the Farrell Law Firm, we employ sophisticated, creative, and innovative planning methods to solve complexities and meet our clients’ objectives for their own estate.

If you have questions about estate and trust law, contact the wills, trusts, and estate planning lawyers at the Farrell Law Firm.

Marietta Probate Lawyer

Advocating for Your Rights to Your Loved One’s Property

If there are multiple wills, no trust, or no will at all when your loved one passes away, you could be left battling for your fair share of the inheritance. There can be a wide range of things you will need to do to properly determine the matters of the estate. Working with a competent Marietta estate planning attorney can help ensure you are taking the right steps and that your rights are properly defended. The Farrell Law Firm can provide you with thorough details about what steps you should be taking following your loved one’s passing and what is happening with the court.

Probate can be a confusing and time-consuming process that some people try to avoid. While probate is not always necessary, it is common for families to undergo probate if the deceased owned assets solely in his or her name and there is a great deal of uncertainty on how to divvy up the assets.

Representation for Probate Litigation & Disputes

For many people, probate disputes can be emotional and hard to quickly resolve. These disputes can be made more difficult since they often involve family members or people whom you have a close association with. Having representation from an educated probate lawyer in Marietta can help to resolve these disputes in mediation or in the court.

At The Farrell Law Firm, it’s our goal to make sure that the legacy of your loved one is properly preserved. We can help you file the proper paperwork with the court to make sure their estate is being properly cared for and advocate on your behalf in litigation. Probate can be a time-consuming process but we can help make it easier for you.
