Most of our clients are Georgia homeowners, business owners, or families managing multiple assets who want their planning handled correctly the first time.
In Georgia, a Will is a legal instruction to a probate judge.
It requires court involvement to be validated.
A properly funded Trust is a private contract designed to allow your assets to transition without a judge’s signature.
Most law firms stop at document drafting, leaving the “funding” of the trust to the client. For asset-heavy estates, this is where plans most often fail. We focus exclusively on execution because we understand that a plan is only effective if your assets are correctly aligned with the legal structure.
The most common reason estate plans fail is that they are “unfunded”—the assets were never legally moved into the trust. Our firm handles the technical implementation for you.
We build architectures designed to ensure there is no “Gap of Authority” between you and your successor.
The trust structure allows your successor trustee to manage accounts and pay expenses like utilities, insurance, and property taxes immediately without waiting for court authority.
The ownership structure is designed so that business operations, payroll, and contracts can remain active and valid without interruption.
Management of land, livestock, and rentals transitions according to your specific instructions rather than state law.

A Will tells the court what to do; a Trust is designed to bypass the court entirely. If you own a home or business, a Trust is the primary mechanism to avoid probate.
We coordinate with the necessary local authorities to record deeds and align those assets with your Georgia-based plan.
We use specific trust language and LLC structures to shield your business interests from personal lawsuits or creditors.
Yes. Probate filings are public records. A funded Trust keeps your asset values and beneficiary names private.
