It's easy to plan for what you want to happen but true peace of mind comes from knowing your plan will prevent what you don't want to happen. I became an estate planning attorney at the age of 40 because I've been where you are-wanting to protect my family. When a recommended attorney created my wife's and my first plan, like most estate plans, it would not have protected our loved ones if anything went wrong in their lives after we passed away.
And we were unaware of the potential vulnerability-we didn't know what we didn't know. Now I know better and am determined to ensure our clients have a plan that works as they intend even if life throws a curve ball. Our team includes a former ALTCS employee, a Veteran, and other field experts. You don't know what will happen to your loved ones after you're gone but you can plan to protect against the curve balls that may come their way.

Joe and Allison retired to Tucson from the Midwest for our warmer weather. They had two grown children and three grandchildren. Though they had a trust created in their home state about ten years ago, Joe and Allison heard it would be prudent to have their trust reviewed in their new state. However, since their beneficiaries remained the same, they assumed the review would simply be a formality.
The Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS) pay-rate for skilled nursing home care in Pima and Pinal counties is over $88,000 per year, and private pay rates are often higher! Do you worry about running out of money if this happens to you? You're not alone. Many fear long-term care costs will drain their savings.
It's hard to lose a loved one. Unfortunately, our laws can make the process of transferring property from the deceased to the rightful owners difficult. If there is no dispute or contest among heirs and beneficiaries, we can help you administer your loved one's estate and help you transfer the deceased's property accordingly.

Dave and the rest of his firm, especially Roland, make an outstanding team. They have been extremely professional - highly experienced, knowledgeable and productive - as they have assisted me in working thru a number of the complex and critical issues faced in the course of properly establishing and managing a Trust as well as the related, often equally challenging process of meeting federal and state eligibility requirements.

We arrived here on the recommendation of a friend who had used Counselor Karp's services. Details of a trust and its variations and provisions for estate preservation for many years were clear and understandable. The information gathering portion was smooth, more so since we already had a trust in place and much of the information was updating what was known. The review of that information and the presentation of our specific needs was very thorough and understandable. We had previously dealt with a law firm, which while providing an excellent product, also needed to project an appearance of grandeur

The law office of David Karp allowed my husband and myself to develop a Trust which we had put off for many years. David approached our meetings in a sensitive manner that gave us peace of mind. We so appreciate the office staff and their “going the extra mile” to ensure our needs were met! We are more than pleased with The Law Office of David Karp!

My wife and I were recommended to David to set our trust up and could not be more pleased with the experience. David was extremely thoughtful throughout the entire process for us focusing on the things that we did not plan on considering, as well as the things we had in mind! I feel much better knowing that we are now protected and our children are as well! Will absolutely recommend to anyone looking for such services.

My husband & I needed a unique estate plan to meet our specific needs. I am so happy with the thoroughness demonstrated and the perfect plan that the Karp Law Team put together for us. I feel like every single of of our crazy requests were met with professionalism and ease. The team is extremely knowledgable and experienced and the customer services was one of a kind. We are very happy that all of our estate plan needs moving forward will be taken care of, and love the yearly client care program they offer as well to stay up to date as things change in our lives. I would highly recommend the Law
