Protecting Your Assets Through an Estate Plan
It is important to have an estate plan to ensure that you control what decisions are made on your behalf near and at the end of your life. Without a will, your assets would be divided according to the state laws of distribution, which may not be favorable to your family and loved ones.

Ensuring Your Estate Is Handled Properly
At Newnam Land, LLP, we will help ensure that your estate will be properly distributed to the appropriate beneficiaries and heirs. A will can dictate how you want your estate to be handled upon your death and specifically indicate how you want to divide your estate amongst your heirs. Additionally, we make sure the property deed on your real estate and any life insurance policies are accurate, as well as determine the takeover of your bank accounts upon your death.
Probate the Estate of a Loved One
Probate is the distribution of assets upon death. Our Trinidad probate lawyers have extensive experience helping clients with the probate process. If there is a will in place, then the executor of the estate will distribute the assets according to the terms of the will. If there is not a will in place, then the estate is divided according to the intestacy statute in Colorado. Our goal is to make the probate process as easy as possible after a loved one's death, making sure not to add to an already difficult time. If there are probate real estate issues or other concerns, we can help resolve them according to our clients' needs and interests.
