who we help

Single Parents

As a single parent, you’re juggling many responsibilities and protecting your child’s future is no doubt, the most important.. Estate planning ensures that, if the unexpected happens, your child will be protected and cared for according to your wishes, even if you’re not there. Without a formal plan, Massachusetts may assign a default approach, disregarding your preferences for guardianship and financial management.

Putting Your Children First

The Parents Estate Planning Law Firm understands the unique challenges single parents face in protecting their children’s future. Our mission is to help you create a comprehensive estate plan that provides clarity, peace of mind, and security for your family.

During your Planning Session we’ll get to know you and your goals for estate planning. We will work together to develop a plan that ensures your child always feels loved and protected, no matter what. 

Our comprehensive estate planning services go beyond just drafting a will. We will ensure:
  • Guardianship: Your child will be cared for by trusted individuals you choose.
  • Financial Security: Your child’s financial well-being is protected, with a clear plan for managing assets and inheritance.
Excluding Guardians: We can ensure your child never ends up in the hands of someone you know you would never want to raise them.
