Delaware Estate, Trust, and Tax Attorneys

 As a small, sophisticated law firm focused on estate planning, estate and trust administration, and tax law, at Old Capital Law Firm your priorities come first. Our attorneys have over twenty-five years of combined experience in estate, trust, and tax law. Our firm's practice is to provide our clients with the individual attention they deserve.

Estate Planning/Estate and Trust Administration for Individuals

The right estate plan will protect your assets, minimize your tax liability, and help you efficiently transfer your wealth to future generations. With so many estate planning tools, you will benefit from a lawyer who takes the time to explain your options so that you can make the best possible decisions for your family.

Always accessible to our clients, we understand that when you have questions, you deserve answers. We carefully explain your options so that you can create a plan that protects you and benefits the people you love. We take the time to get to know our clients, dealing with them directly at every step of the process. We return all phone calls promptly.

Whether you want to protect your assets for future generations with the right estate plan, or you have recently lost a loved one and need to administer his or her estate, we are ready to help. From simple wills to complex estate plans, we can help you with a variety of concerns, including:

  • Estate Planning, including wills, revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts, special needs trusts, powers of attorney, advance medical directives, and the creation of family-owned entities;
  • Estate and Trust Administration, including the representation of Executors and Personal Representatives in the probate process, preparation of state and federal estate and fiduciary tax returns; and
  • Related Legal and Tax Issues, including tax planning and guardianships.

Trust Administration and Fiduciary Matters

  • The Delaware Trust Advantage: Delaware is one of the premier jurisdictions in which to establish trusts. Old Capital Law Firm routinely advises individuals and institutions across the country regarding Delaware trust law. In addition, the attorneys at Old Capital Law Firm represent individuals, banks, and trust companies serving as Trustees of Delaware trusts and, when necessary, file petitions to the Delaware Court of Chancery.
