The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm Founder, Victoria L Collier, Reviews The Role Of Asset Protection Attorneys And Why Most Everyone Should Have One

Estate & Asset Protection Attorney, Victoria Collier explains the specialized role of estate and the asset protection attorney, encouraging anyone with assets to hire one and assures readers these attorneys are not just for the wealthy.

DECATUR, GA, April 30, 2019: Victoria L. Collier, founder of The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm, has posted a new article on her law firm’s website entitled “What Is An Estate And Asset Protection Attorney And Why Do You Need One?” Ms. Collier educates readers about the growing need to have an estate and asset protection plan in place.

Collier states, “Tax season just ended which often creates a sense of anxiety in many.” She continues adding, “I often encourage my clients to use this time for an annual review of their asset protection plans to make sure any changes personally or professionally are still accurately reflected in their plan.”

“If you don’t have an estate and asset protection plan or attorney,” says Collier, “you may want to consider at least scheduling a consultation after you finish reading this article. And, I want to assure you that estate and asset protection attorneys are not just for the super wealthy.” She elaborates, “Even though the word ‘estate’ may conjure up images of extensive land in the country with a large house reminiscent of Downton Abbey, I assure you, even the humblest of abodes can constitute an ‘estate’.”

As Collier points out, “Today, an estate means the net worth of an individual alive or dead. In other words, it is the sum of a person’s assets, legal rights, interests and entitlements.” “In fact” says Collier, “the services of an asset protection attorney are indispensable for anyone who has worked hard to accumulate assets and wants to protect against unexpected lawsuits and to make sure the assets are appropriately distributed when the time comes.”

My husband has dementia. This firm has been patient, kind and professional while we went through a move from a house of 37 years in to a condo to be closer to my daughter and her husband. (Miami to Atlanta). There was also a wedding. All in 6 months.We now have a trust, power of attorney. Wills for my daughter and her husband and more. All at a fair price. I could not recommend higher.

Shannon Pawley and her team are exceptional at helping families navigate tough situations. We began working with her upon finding out my father had Stage 4 kidney cancer. His decline was more rapid than expected.Attorney Pawley and her entire team expedited paperwork that allowed me to focus on my father’s care, make decisions that suddenly needed to be made for him medically and financially, and has allowed me the ability to focus more on grieving and less on legal matters upon his passing.It is obvious she is knowledgeable about the best ways to navigate estates to protect the assets for the owners and their loved ones. It is just as obvious that she is passionate and has true heart for what her clients go through.We will be using her for own estate needs, and I recommend her expertise to everybody I can.This service is worth every penny we paid as it has saved us more money and time than I could imagine.

Attorney Shannon Pawley and paralegal Alexis McCoy are legal professionals that my wife and I highly recommend. Their grasp of the Georgia law pertaining to Medicaid assistance and the interworking's of the State department is exceptional. Additionally, their client-attorney relationship skills are excellent. We wouldn't hesitate to use this law firm again should the need arise.
