The property description in a deed shows where the boundaries between properties lie. Boundary disputes, which are disagreements regarding who owns a piece of property, still occur on a regular basis despite modern surveying techniques. These disputes are especially common when title and boundary lines were established many years ago. Boundary disputes include fences built "over the line," improvements that are not compatible with the neighbor's use or enjoyment of his or her property, roads or driveways that cross over a neighbor's property, or nuisances on property. An experienced real estate attorney can help find a solution for a boundary dispute.

Trusts
Power of Attorney
A health care directive works like a power of attorney, except it covers health care decisions instead of financial decisions. Unlike a conservatorship, which your relatives must pursue if you are unable to make your own decisions, you draft a healthcare directive yourself while you are of sound mind and lucid. Included in the healthcare directive is a "living will" which leaves instructions if you fall into a terminal coma.
Probate
If your loved one died intestate, the estate is distributed according to state probate law. Frieberg, Nelson & Ask, L.L.P. can help ensure smooth and efficient completion to the intestate proceedings.
Trusts are powerful, flexible legal instruments. They can be used to fund charities, provide for an heir's education, or provide for your own care in your later years. You can also use trusts for estate tax planning purposes and to avoid probate.
