Services
You can't take it with you, but you can decide where it goes. Estate Planning is the process of managing and transferring your property to the people and causes you care about with the least cost and stress to your family.

With the right kind of planning, you'll control the distribution of your assets while minimizing or avoiding Probate, making the most of tax advantages and savings, and reducing or eliminating any negative tax consequences commonly associated with the transfer of wealth.Your financial situation, your present and future needs, and your wishes for the future are unique to you.
If you don't have a Will, it's time to draft one. If you made a Will years ago, it's time to review it and possibly revise it. If you've remarried or there have been marriages, divorces, births or deaths among your heirs, you may even want or need to revoke your current Will and draft a new one.

At Nici Law Firm, P.L., in Naples, you'll find an experienced Florida board-certified Wills, Trusts & Estates Estate Planning specialist ready to sit down with you and understand your needs and desires regarding your estate.You can count on Naples wills lawyer James R. Nici to draft a valid will that will be accepted into Probate and accomplish your goals for distributing your property according to your wishes.
Estate Planning is only partly about creating the right set of Wills and Trusts to ensure your assets are distributed according to your wishes and in a way that maximizes tax advantages while minimizing Probate.

Just as important is making sure the right legal documents are in place to protect your health along with your financial and legal affairs in the event you become incapacitated and can't make important decisions that affect you personally, even temporarily.
A blended family is the popular term for marriages where one or both spouses have a child or children from a previous marriage. By some estimates, blended families make up 40% of marriages in the U.S., as well as 60% of divorces. Blended families can be hard work but also extremely rewarding.

In the busy lives of parents working hard to make their marriage a success, some important aspects of their lives that should not be overlooked are the unique needs and issues of Estate Planning in a blended family.
You probably don't need an incentive to engage in charitable giving and would give to others even if it didn't happen to also benefit you personally. Regardless, the federal government encourages and rewards charitable giving by offering favorable tax treatment to the charitable-minded.

With the right kind of Estate Planning, you can make sizeable gifts to your favorite charities while still ensuring sufficient income for yourself and your loved ones after you are gone.

I cannot agree with Kristen about Jim's malfeasances on this enough. As my trustee he has changed trusts that weren't supposed to be changed.

Turned brother against brother , in our case ., as well as - sons against fathers ., he is low low low down .

Distributions that are his discretion only are then given to other beneficiaries as to protect his trusteeship. Essentially turning them all against ONE ?

It's a farce and a costly one at that! It seem unethical or should be down right illegal. Trusts that are deemed irrevocable had better not stay in nici office or they

So very happy with James Nici. Absolutely professional and knowledgeable in his area of expertise. Very thorough and clear on options and on point with important suggestions for us. We came to him so he can help us with a family event and then were so impressed, that we had him handle our complete estate planning.

I must post an updated version of the 5 star google review I initially wrote. When I wrote the original recommendation, I didn't know Jim at all, but I had high hopes and positive expectations of his services. I wanted to give him a chance and start out a positive professional relationship by providing a glowing review. Unfortunately, my high hopes for his services have become a nightmare I never thought possible. I've been exploited, embarrassed & demoralized by those involved in this trust, and this abuse needs to end.

I was forced to sign over control of my father's trust

I practiced law for 35 years at a large firm with a large tax practice. When it came time to have a new estate plan done in Florida , I interviewed several attorneys. Fortunately we went with Jim who not only can explain complex estate planning and tax issues in understandable terms, he produces draft and final documents at an astonishing pace. Also, he has helped administer a very complex estate and two fairly straightforward estates with equal promptness and clarity. In short, he's among the best tax lawyers and far and away the best estate lawyer I've ever worked with.
