The estate planning and probate services of the McDermott Law Firm include providing guidance and advice to clients concerning wills, living trusts, estate tax avoidance, advance medical directives and powers of attorney, and probate and non-probate estate administration.

John McDermott engages in estate planning for the firm's clients.

John has been involved in will drafting, elder law and probate throughout his legal career and now spends much of his time litigating estate and trust matters. He is a member of the Trust and Estate Section of the Colorado Bar Association, the Real Property and the Probate and Trust Law Section of the American Bar Association and regularly attends seminars and conferences on estate planning throughout the country.

We routinely consult with CPAs, insurance and other financial and planning consultants outside the firm in developing and implementing estate plans that meet the needs of specific clients.

The firm boasts a comprehensive and current estate planning library, and affiliation with internet estate planning information distribution systems, in order to stay abreast of the most current information available in the ever-changing estate and tax planning arena.
