Plan Today for Peace of Mind Tomorrow
From First Home to Retirement-We Tailor Your Plan
Your plan should match your season of life. Young families often prioritize naming guardians and establishing a first will. Mid-career clients may look at living trusts for asset management and privacy. Seniors frequently focus on
medical directives, powers of attorney, and making things easier for loved ones. Babb, Bixler & Dollar LLC coordinates with your financial advisor or CPA when needed to align legal documents with your broader goals in Greenville and surrounding Upstate communities.
Key Components of an Estate Plan
Documents That Make Your Wishes Clear
A Last Will and Testament directs how your assets are distributed and can name guardians for minor children. Our attorneys draft wills that comply with South Carolina law so your instructions are followed.
Revocable living trusts can help avoid probate, manage assets during incapacity, and preserve privacy. We'll help determine whether a trust fits your goals and which type makes sense.
Financial and durable powers of attorney appoint a trusted person to act if you cannot. These are essential for anyone who wants to avoid court-appointed decision makers.
These healthcare documents spell out your preferences and designate a healthcare agent so your family isn't left guessing during a crisis.
Trusts & Asset Protection Option
Planning Tools for Complex Needs
For families with special circumstances-minor or special-needs beneficiaries, blended families, business interests, or higher-value estates-our wills and trusts attorneys can implement tools such as special needs trusts, life insurance trusts, or trust provisions designed to control timing of distributions. While federal estate tax affects a small percentage of households, we'll discuss whether any advanced planning may be appropriate for your situation in Greenville or the broader Upstate.
