Credentials That Make A Difference

An Experienced Team Ready To Work For You
At Lyons, Beaudry & Harrison, P.A., your estate planning needs are handled by a board-certified attorney with experience in estate planning, and estate and trust litigation supported by a skilled staff who bring decades of experience to each client we serve.
Estate planning is personal to each client. It involves not only the disposition of your estate at your death but planning for your lifetime needs, intentions and financial protections in the event of diminished capacity. We believe in a proactive approach to the challenges of aging, lifetime care and protection from financial exploitation. We understand that a clear estate plan is the foundation of any good long-term life and succession plan. From wills and trusts, and health care directives to living wills and powers of attorney, we provide guidance and assistance in the implementation of your estate and life care plans.
We also provide care, coordination and support services through our board-certified case manager to ease the burdens on you and your family caregivers. All of these factors should be considered so that your assets are distributed the way you would like once you pass on and your financial and medical affairs are properly handled during your lifetime. With the establishment of a proper estate plan, the intrusion of the court into your private affairs can be avoided. However, should a guardianship be filed against you, we are experienced in representing your interests in any guardianship litigation. In the event you require long-term care, which may deplete your assets, we have experience handling even the most complex Medicaid planning.
