Estate Planning Attorneys in Nashville, Tennessee

Estate planning ensures your wishes are honored and your loved ones are protected.

Trust and Estate Attorneys in Nashville

A trust is a powerful tool designed to protect your assets and streamline the process for your loved ones. Oath Law's Nashville trust attorneys help you explore both revocable living trusts and irrevocable trusts, explaining how each one supports your goals.

A revocable living trust keeps you in control during your lifetime and can be updated as your circumstances change. An irrevocable trust offers long-term structure and stronger protection. We walk you through both options in clear, practical language so you can choose a trust strategy that reflects your values and ensures your family's future security.

Wills and Estate Planning Lawyers in Nashville

A will forms the foundation of your estate plan. It outlines how your property will be distributed, names guardians for minor children, and provides clear direction for your family when they need it most.

At Oath Law, our Nashville estate planning lawyers make writing or updating your will simple and stress-free. We guide you through key decisions, help you express your wishes clearly, and ensure your final document reflects what matters most to you. With a clear will in place, your loved ones will have the guidance and comfort they need in the future.

Power of Attorney Lawyers in Nashville

A Power of Attorney (POA) allows someone you trust to manage your financial and legal affairs if you become unable to do so yourself. Without this essential document, your family may need court approval to handle even simple tasks.

Our Nashville team helps you choose the right person, outline their responsibilities, and create a durable POA tailored to your needs. With a proper POA in place, you can feel confident knowing your affairs will be managed smoothly during unexpected situations.

Healthcare Directives and Living Wills

A healthcare directive — also known as a living will — clearly communicates your medical treatment preferences in situations where you cannot speak for yourself. These documents help your family make decisions with confidence and ensure that your care aligns with your values.

The Oath Law Nashville team guides you through compassionate conversations about life support, comfort care, and other important medical decisions. We help you document your wishes clearly, giving your loved ones the clarity they need during challenging moments.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What's the difference between a will and a trust?

A will takes effect after you pass away, while a trust can manage your assets during your lifetime and afterward.

2. Do I need both a trust and a will?

Many Nashville families benefit from having both. A trust simplifies administration, while a will covers remaining assets and names guardians.

3. Who should be my Power of Attorney?

Choose someone you trust completely — responsible, organized, and capable of making decisions on your behalf.

4. How often should I update my estate plan?

Every few years or after major life events such as marriage, divorce, or buying property.

5. What happens if I die without a will?

If you pass without a will, state law determines how your assets are distributed — which may not reflect your wishes.

A living will documents your preferences for medical care if you cannot communicate.

7. Should digital assets be part of my estate plan?
