Legal Wills and Trusts
KT Law provides a broad range of services for clients related to trusts and estate - from the preparation of simple wills to the litigation of complex estate matters. Based upon our experience in litigation, we advise our estate planning clients on the preparation of documents and the designation of fiduciaries, in order to avoid conflict insofar as possible.
We also can and have prepared additional documents for clients, such as:
- Preserving the utmost confidentiality of client communications, and taking extra care where a client indicates a particular concern or danger
- Keeping up substantial and continual communication with our client regarding pending matters
- Use of mediation and alternative dispute resolution techniques
- Use of paralegal resources to save the client money
KT Law also assists clients with the administration of estate matters, where someone has died and their assets need to be transferred to their heirs or beneficiaries. This involves a count proceeding and formal documents (whether the deceased had a will or not), but most cases in Colorado can be handled as a "simplified" probate.
Sometimes - even where the deceased had a will - there is a dispute that arises. There, KT Law can assist a client in protecting the client's interest.
KT Law has also handled matters where:
- An out-of-state resident has died with property in Colorado that needs to be transferred to that person's beneficiaries
- An estate (probate proceeding) needs to be re-opened because there was a property that did not get conveyed at the time the probate proceeding was initially done
- An out-of-state resident has been designated to serve as a "personal representative or a "trustee" in a Colorado estate administration
- Assisted clients in finding qualified counsel to administer such estate;
- Assisted clients in finding qualified counsel to assist with property documents and the transfer of assets;
- Assisted clients in finding estate-planning counsel.
