Minnesota Elder Law

At Johnson/Turner, we focus on key aspects of elder law to provide clarity and security for you and your loved ones. While we do not take on broader elder law cases, we specialize in estate planning and probate services tailored to your unique needs.

What Is Elder Law?

Elder law often encompasses a wide range of legal matters affecting senior citizens. At Johnson/Turner, we narrow our focus to the estate and probate processes, helping families create clear, comprehensive plans to manage their assets and navigate legal complexities.

Our expertise ensures you’re prepared for the future, with key documents like wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives in place. Additionally, we provide probate guidance to minimize stress for families managing an estate.

Why Estate Planning Matters

Estate planning allows you to maintain control over your legacy, ensuring your assets are managed and distributed according to your wishes. By addressing concerns such as who will make decisions on your behalf or how your property will be divided, estate planning provides peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

Key Documents Include:

  • Wills: Designate guardians, distribute assets, and outline your final wishes.
  • Trusts: Provide more control over your assets, avoid probate, and protect beneficiaries.
  • Powers of Attorney: Ensure financial and legal matters are managed if you become incapacitated.
  • Healthcare Directives: Define medical preferences and appoint healthcare decision-makers.

Navigating Probate

When a loved one passes, managing their estate can feel overwhelming. Our probate services guide families through this process, whether through formal probate or court-free estate administration. We help ensure all assets are distributed correctly and all legal obligations are met, minimizing conflict and stress.
