Our Legal Services

Here at Gruber, Colabella, Thompson, Hiben & Montella, we represent individuals facing all estate-related matters, including the following:

• Wills & Trusts: Our attorneys work closely with clients to draft wills tailored to their unique circumstances, whether you have a complex estate or modest assets.

We also assist clients in establishing a wide range of trusts, including revocable, irrevocable, and special needs trusts, designed to protect your assets and provide for your loved ones. Whether your goals involve minimizing estate taxes or safeguarding a child’s inheritance, we will develop a trust strategy aligned with your long-term objectives.
• Powers of Attorney: A power of attorney allows you to appoint a trusted individual to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf should you become incapacitated. Our attorneys can help you craft a power of attorney that is both comprehensive and flexible, ensuring your affairs are handled according to your wishes. Whether you need a durable, limited, or springing power of attorney, we will tailor the document to your specific needs and circumstances, giving you and your loved ones greater peace of mind.
• Living Wills: A living will gives you control over your medical care in the event you cannot communicate your wishes. Our attorneys will guide you through this important document, ensuring your preferences for life-sustaining treatments and end-of-life care are clearly articulated, easing the burden on your family during difficult times.
• Estate Administration & Litigation: When disputes arise over the validity of a will or the administration of an estate, our experienced litigators are prepared to advocate on your behalf.
