Estate Planning Attorney in Murray, UT

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

Murray is a centrally located Salt Lake County city that has been around longer than many of its neighbors. It has a mix of older, established neighborhoods and newer infill development, and the population reflects that range. You will find long-time homeowners who raised their families here alongside younger buyers attracted by Murray's central location and relatively affordable housing compared to the east bench.

Our office in North Salt Lake is about 15 minutes north of Murray on I-15. We handle the consultation and plan design virtually, and the signing appointment is a short drive. Murray clients often tell us the virtual approach is simpler than they expected and that the one trip to our office is easy to fit into a weekday.

Murray is in Salt Lake County, so probate matters go through the Third District Court in Salt Lake City. Long-time Murray homeowners with paid-off or near-paid-off houses have a strong reason to get a trust in place, because that home equity passes through probate if it is held in your personal name.

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.
