Estate planning gives your family clarity, stability, and peace of mind. At Oath Law, our Long Island office helps individuals and families create personalized estate plans that reflect their values and protect what matters most. Whether you're building your first plan or updating documents you've had for years, we make the process simple, supportive, and easy to understand.

A trust is one of the most effective tools available for managing and protecting your assets. Oath Law's Long Island trust attorneys help you understand when a revocable living trust or an irrevocable trust may be right for your situation.

A revocable living trust gives you complete control and flexibility; you can update it whenever your life changes. An irrevocable trust offers stronger asset protection and long-term structure. Our team explains both options in clear, practical language so you can choose the approach that best supports your financial goals and family needs.

With a trust tailored to you, your loved ones can enjoy a smoother, simpler process for managing your estate in the future.

A will is the foundation of every strong estate plan. It outlines your wishes, names beneficiaries, and provides vital guidance for your loved ones. It can also designate guardians for minor children and clarify how sentimental items should be handled.

At Oath Law, our Long Island estate planning lawyers guide you through each decision step by step. We help you define your intentions clearly and design a will that reflects your values and priorities. You'll finish with a document that brings peace of mind today and comfort to your family in the future.

A Power of Attorney (POA) gives someone you trust the authority to manage your financial and legal affairs if you're unable to do so. Without a POA, your family may face court involvement just to handle basic matters like paying bills or managing accounts.

Our Long Island team helps you choose the right agent, determine their responsibilities, and prepare a durable POA built to protect your interests. With this essential document in place, you can feel confident knowing someone responsible will be able to step in when life becomes unpredictable.

A healthcare directive or living will ensures your medical wishes are honored if you cannot communicate them yourself. These documents give your loved ones clarity and help prevent stressful, uncertain decision-making during emotional times.

Oath Law's Long Island team guides you through thoughtful discussions about life support, comfort care, and treatment preferences. We help you clearly document your wishes so your family and medical team can confidently act in accordance with your values.

Families across Long Island choose Oath Law because we make estate planning simple, transparent, and truly supportive.

What sets Oath Law apart:

Flat-fee pricing — no hourly billing or unexpected costs.

No upsells or litigation — estate planning only.

A friendly, educational process that puts clients at ease.

Exclusive focus on estate planning — deep, specialized expertise.

Secure digital access to all completed documents.

Ongoing support as your family grows and life changes.

A will distributes assets after your death, while a trust can manage assets during your lifetime and afterward.

Many Long Island families benefit from both. A trust streamlines administration, while a will covers remaining assets and names guardians.

Select someone you trust completely — ideally someone responsible, calm under pressure, and capable of handling financial matters.

Review your plan every few years or after major life events like marriage, divorce, or the purchase of a home.

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

A living will outlines your medical treatment preferences if you're unable to communicate.

Yes. Your estate plan should address email accounts, online banking, social media, and digital files.

A well-crafted estate plan ensures each family member is protected and your intentions are clearly documented.

Not updating documents, choosing the wrong decision-makers, and waiting too long to start are frequent errors.
