Estate Planning Attorney in Centerville, UT

Flat-fee estate plans for Centerville families. Wills, trusts, powers of attorney — explained in plain English.

Centerville sits in the middle of Davis County, with a mix of long-time residents, young families who have moved in over the past decade, and retirees downsizing from larger homes elsewhere along the Wasatch Front. Each of these groups has different estate planning priorities, but they share the same underlying reality: Utah's planning landscape has changed in recent years, and documents signed under older law often need updating.

Our office in North Salt Lake is about ten minutes south of Centerville. Take Interstate 15 south from Parrish Lane (Exit 319), exit at 315 (Center Street / 2600 South), and we are one block east. Most of the estate planning process happens virtually, so Centerville clients typically only visit the office for the signing appointment.

Centerville is in Davis County, which means probate matters are handled at the Second District Court in Farmington. A properly funded revocable living trust avoids probate entirely and is the most common recommendation for Centerville homeowners.

Utah Estate Planning Law

Utah is not a community property state. Instead, it follows equitable distribution principles, which means assets acquired during marriage are divided fairly but not necessarily equally. Utah has adopted a version of the Uniform Trust Code and allows perpetual trusts. The state recently updated its Advance Health Care Directive Act, so older healthcare directive forms may not comply with current law.
