ESTATE PLANNING

Burts Turner & Rhodes has been helping residents of the upstate for decades with their estate planning needs. Most of us do not like to discuss the thought of losing a loved one. Sadly, a large percentage of people fail to sign their Last Will and Testament before their death. This causes numerous hardships for those who are assigned the task of administering an Estate.

(1) If you die without a Will, do you know who inherits your
assets?
(2) If you die without a Will and you have minor children, do
you know what happens?
(3) If you become ill or incapacitated, and you have no Power
of Attorney (POA), do you know what happens?
(4) If you become ill or incapacitated, and you have no Power
of Attorney (POA), do you know what happens?

If you would like to discuss these issues and other estate planning matters, please get in touch with our office. We look forward to serving you.

Burts Turner & Rhodes is one of the longest established general practice law firms in Spartanburg that has provided legal representation to residents of the Upstate for more than 5 decades.
