July 6, 2021 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

Estate planning is often looked upon as a purely financial endeavor. You facilitate postmortem asset transfers to your loved ones, and that’s the long and short of it. In reality, there is another important factor to consider, and we will examine it in this post. Cognitive Impairment and Physical Incapacity Elder law and estate planning attorneys have to address some realities that a lot of people do not like to think about.

Estate Planning For Domestic Partners

June 30, 2020 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

"Intestacy" is the term used when one dies without a valid last will. Some people are under the impression that the government takes your property if you die estate. The reality is that legal rules of descent determine who will inherit your property. If you are married your closest relative is your surviving spouse and he or she will inherit some or all of your property, depending on whether you have children, if you die without a will. This does not mean there's no reason for you to … [Read more...] about Estate Planning For Domestic Partners

Estate Planning For Millennials

November 5, 2015 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

When it comes to millennials, estate planning is almost certainly near the top of the list of topics they rarely, if ever, think about. Around half of all Americans have created an estate plan, but the percent of young adults who have done so is far lower than that. Nevertheless, millennials face a host of estate planning issues that members of older generations don't, or at least not to the same extent. Today we are going to look at several estate planning issues that millennials need to … [Read more...] about Estate Planning For Millennials

Affluenza, Inheritances, and Legacy Wealth Plans

October 20, 2015 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

The notion of affluenza came into the public spotlight last year after a teenager in Texas was involved in a drunk driving collision that resulted in the death of several people. One of the witnesses raised the notion of affluenza to explain the teen's actions. In this context, affluenza was used to show that a person raised in an affluent environment might have a diminished ability to understand the consequences of his or her actions. Even though the attorney in the affluenza … [Read more...] about Affluenza, Inheritances, and Legacy Wealth Plans

Free Report: Why Oklahoma Estate Planning Is Important For Your Family – Part2

October 7, 2015 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

Why Oklahoma estate planning is important

One of the most important topics that estate plans allow you to address is the question of inheritance. Like many other estate planning issues, the state already has laws that determine your inheritance choices. Many people are surprised by this fact. For example, you might be surprised to learn that should you die, your spouse might inherit all or a significant portion of your property even if you specifically stated you wanted others to inherit from you specifically stated you wanted others to … [Read more...] about Free Report: Why Oklahoma Estate Planning Is Important For Your Family – Part2
