We assist our clients in settling any disputes amicably and, if a resolution cannot be reached, our attorneys can represent clients in will caveats, or contests.
Clients rely on Rountree Losee to provide sound legal advice when creating or revising a will, developing a plan for end of life care, and making decisions about health care powers of attorney or living wills.

Hiring A Wilmington Estate Attorney
There are plenty of free resources available to individuals who would like to create simple estate planning documents. However, estate planning is rarely simple. The laws that govern estate administration are complex, and can stand in the way of your wishes being carried out upon death. A simple mistake could invalidate a will – sending your estate into probate.
An experienced Wilmington estate planning attorney not only ensures valid, effective documents, but also has the knowledge to recommend the best tools to ensure your finances, property, and beneficiaries are cared for according to your standards. When it comes to planning for the future, we believe it is important to seek experienced legal help to develop an estate plan that fully protects you and your beneficiaries.
