Estate Planning Services

Secure Your Legacy with Expert Solutions

Trusts, Wills, and Other Estate Planning Documents

John F. Davenport, Esq. drafts revocable living trusts, pour-over wills, irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives for families in Connecticut and New York. Probate in CT and NY can take 12 to 18 months and cost 3 to 7% of the estate's value. A properly funded revocable trust avoids probate entirely.

  • Comprehensive estate planning guidance

  • Probate avoidance with tailored solutions

Existing Trust Reviews

Laws change. The estate tax exemption changed significantly in 2026 under federal legislation. If your trust was drafted before 2020, it may contain language about the SECURE Act that no longer reflects how inherited IRAs are treated. We review existing plans for CT and NY families to catch gaps before they become problems.

  • Normal rate of $250 for review, that can be used as a credit towards any other estate planning service.
