Estate Planning requires a lawyer to have an expertise in drafting Wills, Trusts, Living Wills, and Durable Power of Attorney. It is also important to be proficient in the state Probate procedure, when a client dies.

BUSINESS LAW

There are numerous business forms that can be adopted in Colorado. To name a few, there are:

• Corporations
• Partnerships
• Limited Liability Companies

TAXATION

There are tax consequences to virtually every thing you do. In Estate Planning, you need to consider the estate taxes that may affect the language in your Will or Trust.

In the Business arena the tax consequences of your business structure need to be considered.
