An estate planning attorney who focuses their practice in the area of estate planning is critical to helping guide you through the intricacies of the area.

A good financial planner is important to make sure you are on track to achieve your retirement and other financial goals. - An Accountant
A good accountant can help you navigate income tax issues and, if you have a business, can make sure the business adheres to accounting standards. - An Insurance Agent
An insurance agent can help you select the right coverage for your needs to shift risks you cannot afford to bear yourself. Life insurance can be particularly useful in estate planning.
