Estate Planning Attorney in Moscow, ID

Protect Your Legacy. Plan with Confidence.

Planning for the future means more than saving money or buying insurance—it means creating a legal roadmap that protects your family, assets, and wishes when life takes an unexpected turn. At Alturas Law Group, our estate planning attorneys in Moscow provide the guidance and tools you need to plan ahead with clarity and confidence.

Whether you're building a family, entering retirement, or managing complex assets, we’re here to help you create a plan that puts your mind at ease.

Why Estate Planning Is Essential

A well-prepared estate plan does more than distribute your belongings—it protects your loved ones, minimizes confusion, and avoids costly court procedures. It can:

Ensure your children are cared for
Allow you to avoid probate
Minimize estate taxes
Clearly distribute assets
Appoint someone to make decisions if you cannot

Without a plan, Idaho law—and not your personal wishes—may determine how your estate is handled. Taking action today gives you control and protects the people who matter most.

Our Estate Planning Services in Moscow

We offer comprehensive estate planning services designed to fit your goals, assets, and family dynamics. Our attorneys take the time to understand your situation and craft a customized strategy that evolves as your life does. Services include:

Wills

Your will is your voice when you're no longer here. It directs how your assets will be passed on and who will care for your minor children. We draft legally sound wills that reflect your intentions and prevent future disputes.

Trusts

Trusts offer flexibility and control over how your assets are managed and distributed—both during your life and after. Whether you need a living trust, special needs trust, or irrevocable trust, we’ll help you choose the right tool for your situation.

Powers of Attorney

In the event of incapacity, you need someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf. We prepare both healthcare and financial powers of attorney that ensure your preferences are respected when you can’t speak for yourself.

Healthcare Directives

Also known as a living will, a healthcare directive spells out your medical treatment preferences. We’ll help you create clear documents that spare your family from uncertainty during difficult times.

Probate & Estate Administration

If you're responsible for settling a loved one’s estate, we provide legal support through the entire probate process. We help executors, administrators, and families navigate legal duties, deadlines, and asset distribution with care.
