Estate Planning Attorneys in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Estate planning gives you clarity, peace of mind, and the assurance that your loved ones will be protected. At Oath Law, our Milwaukee office helps individuals and families build personalized estate plans that reflect their wishes and simplify the future. Whether you're creating your first plan or updating long-standing documents, we make the process straightforward, supportive, and easy to understand.

Trust and Estate Attorneys in Milwaukee

A trust is one of the most powerful tools for managing your assets and protecting your family's long-term interests. Oath Law's Milwaukee trust attorneys help you understand the differences between revocable living trusts and irrevocable trusts, and determine which choice best supports your goals.

A revocable living trust allows you to retain control of your assets and make changes as life evolves. An irrevocable trust provides stronger asset protection and long-term structure. We explain each option in simple, practical terms and help you design a trust strategy that gives your loved ones long-term clarity and confidence.

Wills and Estate Planning Lawyers in Milwaukee

A will is the foundation of a complete estate plan. It outlines how your property should be distributed, names guardians for minor children, and gives your loved ones essential clarity.

At Oath Law, our Milwaukee estate planning lawyers guide you through the entire process of creating or updating your will. We help you define your wishes, choose your beneficiaries, and document everything in a meaningful and clear way. With a well-crafted will in place, your family will have the guidance they need at every step.

Power of Attorney Lawyers in Milwaukee

A Power of Attorney (POA) allows someone you trust to manage your financial or legal matters if you ever become unable to do so. Without a POA, your family may face delays and legal barriers during an already stressful time.

Our Milwaukee team helps you choose the right person, define their authority, and prepare a durable POA that offers protection and peace of mind. With this document in place, your affairs will continue to be managed smoothly and responsibly, no matter what life brings.

Healthcare Directives and Living Wills

A healthcare directive, sometimes called a living will, outlines your medical preferences if you cannot communicate them yourself. These documents help your loved ones make confident, compassionate decisions aligned with your values.

Oath Law's Milwaukee team walks you through important medical considerations—such as life support, emergency treatment, and comfort care—and helps you document your preferences clearly. Your family and healthcare providers will always know how best to honor your wishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A will becomes effective after you pass away, while a trust can manage your assets during your lifetime and beyond.

Without a will, state law determines how your assets are distributed — which may not reflect your intentions.

A living will outlines your medical treatment preferences when you cannot communicate.
