Do You Need Estate Planning?

The simple answer is that nearly everyone owns an estate whether they feel that they do or not.  It is the simple act of making a written plan of where you want your worldly assets to go when you leave this life.  While it does not have to be elaborate and certainly not expensive it needs to be done right.  Of course, it may always be altered later.


Here are just a few tips to remember –

1.  Pass on your values as well as your valuables.
2.  Make sure that you receive the proper care if you become incapacitated.
3.  Assign someone to care for your minor children.
4.  Leave behind provisions for family members that cannot provide for themselves.
5.  Include a solid life insurance policy.

These and other considerations should be made with the help of a veteran estate planning attorney.  That man is attorney Bill Cornett.  Residents of the Amarillo, TX area and parts of New Mexico and Oklahoma around the panhandle should sit down and tap into his forty years of estate planning experience.  Don’t put this off any longer.  Call Bill at the Cornett Law Firm today at (806) 374-9498.

The First Step in a Personal Injury Claim.

When you feel that you have a legitimate personal injury case, it is important to act quickly.  The first thing that many people feel is, “Oh well, I will just let it go and I will get better over time”.  While this is positive thinking it does not address the issue of fair compensation.  Your life may be changed negatively after this incident.

Personal injury is fairly easy to define.  It boils down to injuries that are caused by other people or companies.  Sometimes it may be both - as in a case, when someone is driving a vehicle owned by the company for which they work.  It is important to seek an attorney who (1) offers a free consultation, (2) is certified in Personal Injury Trial Law, and (3) works on a contingency fee.  Therefore, if you win the case the attorney gets paid from the settlement and there is not an upfront cost to the client.

Just such a lawyer is located in Amarillo and is certified in Personal Injury Trial Law.  He is attorney Bill Cornett.  If you live in the Amarillo, TX area or have been injured within the panhandle or surrounding area, seek the counsel of forty year veteran lawyer, Bill Cornett.  Bill is an experienced Personal Injury Trial attorney in Amarillo.  Don’t procrastinate!  The initial consultation is free.  Call Bill today at (806) 374-9498.
