Estate Planning Attorney in Sidney, Ohio
Experienced Sidney, Ohio Estate Planning Lawyer
Between the 1840s to 1913, canal boats carried Sidney products—along with other Shelby County products—to Cincinnati or Toledo. Prior to the time railways came to Sidney, most transportation was provided via the canal since the roads were unpaved, which were often unusable during inclement weather conditions. The land that is now Sidney was originally a 70-acre parcel of land located on the west side of the Great Miami River and donated by Charles Starrett to be Shelby County’s county seat. Areas surrounding Sidney were once deeply forested hunting grounds of the Shawnee and Miami Indian nations. However, over time, the fertile areas became agricultural lands.

What Is Involved in Sidney, Ohio Estate Planning?
Virtually every adult will accumulate some level of assets or even just family heirlooms over the course of a lifetime. You, like most adults, probably have a clear idea of how you would want those assets distributed upon your death. Estate planning takes care of the questions and uncertainties associated with distributing your assets after you are gone, as well as designating someone to be a guardian for your minor children. The process involved in estate planning in the state of Ohio includes:
- Creating an inventory of everything you own, and everything you owe—assets and debts. You will also need the names of those who will be a part of your estate plan.
- Developing a contingency plan—you are able to control what will happen to your assets if you were to unexpectedly die or become incapacitated—a strategy that will answer many questions for your loved ones.
- Providing for the future needs of your children and other dependents, including naming a guardian for children under the age of 18, or adult children who have a disability.
- Protecting your assets via minimizing expenses and covering estate taxes, while still being able to meet your goals.
- Documenting your wishes in the event you were to become incapacitated.
- Designating someone to act on your behalf—an executor for your will, a legal guardian for your dependents, a trustee for your assets, or a personal representative or power of attorney should you become incapacitated.
