Helping Craft Purposeful Wills and Estate Documents

A last will and testament is the linchpin of a comprehensive estate plan. At Satterberg, Healy & Eeckhoudt, in Seattle, Washington, we have more than fifty years of experience helping people protect their assists, distribute their property, and minimize any estate taxes tied to their estate.

Satterberg, Healy & Eeckhoudt advises clients on a broad range of matters associated with wills:

• Drafting wills
• Drafting community property survivorship agreements
• Preparing accompanying estate planning documents such as durable powers of attorney, living wills, and advanced healthcare directives
• Validating wills
• Changing or revoking wills
• Serving as trustees
• Advising personal representatives or executors
• Will challenges and will contests

A will can accomplish many objectives, including the distribution of property, designation of a personal representative, and naming of a guardian for minor children. We work closely with our clients to understand their unique situation and draft estate documents that meet their specific needs.

Who Needs a Will?

The answer to that is simple: anyone who owns any property. When a person dies intestate or without a will the state of Washington distributes assets to heirs according to statutory guidelines. A will enables you to control how your property will be distributed. Our attorneys have extensive experience helping individuals and families draft and execute wills. One of our primary objectives in drafting wills is to make the lives of surviving family members easy when they need their lives to be easy.
