Joseph R Burcke LLC

Joseph R. Burcke LLC, a St. Louis estate planning lawyer, helps disabled individuals and their families. He believes estate planning is critical to achieving clients' goals and offers strategic planning. Wills (or Trusts), Powers of attorney, non-probate beneficiaries, and other legal tools are used to maintain control of clients' assets and avoid unnecessary probate costs if they die or become disabled. Clients also benefit from Joseph R. Burcke's knowledge in minimizing estate tax, gift tax, and nursing home costs. Probate and estate administration involve transferring deceased estates. Probate needs court rules needed to confirm a will. The administration may transfer when a person dies without a will (by law or with a trust). If no will is present, assets can transfer according to state laws. We want to make this process easy, efficient, and give you peace of mind when things are difficult. A common probate misconception is that a Will makes probate unnecessary. If you have a Will, the court will not be involved in your case (except for filing the will and issuing letters of guardianship).

Joe has many satisfied clients who have only positive things to say about him. They describe him as professional, knowledgeable, and caring. Clients felt that he made the legal process pleasant and not complex, and his professionalism and his commitment to educate the customers on their choices and answer their questions made their meetings even more productive. Joe took care of business and carried out their wishes within an acceptable timeframe, and most clients said that Joe was the best estate planner they have ever utilized to assure their estate planning was made correctly. His benevolent and unassuming attitude helped clients who generally avoid attorneys to have a positive experience. His consumers often report they feel confident that Joe always does what is best for them, and they praise him for his professionalism and excellent service. His clients frequently come from different regions, and even his overseas clients, mostly the United Kingdom, have said that they were pleased to use his assistance again. He comes highly recommended for the clients, and they say that they wish they had met him earlier in life.
