- A detailed comparison between wills and trusts and when each is appropriate for specific situations
- How trusts preserve, manage, and distribute assets to their beneficiaries

Hear What Others Have Said
My experience with Craig Associates, PC was very positive. I attended an informational seminar at their office in the Southside of Asheville which answered many questions in advance.
They helped me to create an estate plan, living will, and health care power of attorney (HC PoA) for my end of life planning… My family is thrilled that I took the time to spell out my wishes for the end of my life in my living will to save them the anguish of making the decisions. We are all sleeping better at night.
Chris, Shelly and Justin were pleasant to work with and very efficient. I especially appreciate that they bent over backwards to meet my schedule as I had surgery planned and needed my HC PoA and Living Will in place before the surgery.
I would definitely recommend Craig Associates for your Estate Planning, Living Wills and Health Care Power of Attorney. Sleep peacefully!

My husband and I finally decided that it was time to redo our estate plan, but weren’t really sure what we needed. Chris was so wonderful to work with! He immediately put us at ease patiently explaining his recommendations. Chris took his time throughout the process, making sure that we understood how each document fit into our estate plan and answered many (many!) questions. It’s a great comfort to us to know that we have a thorough plan in place for the future. And working with Chris made it a very pleasant experience. We highly recommend him!

Since moving to North Carolina and knowing…agonizing…about how to update my trust, make the changes needed with a new home and decide what to do about that pesky stepson, a friend invited me to go along with her to an introduction to Chris and his associates at Craig Associates PC. I was impressed with the presentation. It was not at all boring and addressed many of my questions. So I signed up for a consultation, which turned into a great discussion about the changes I wanted to make. Chris felt very authentic to me and I felt I could express my real feeling about my family without guilt. That day, which was only to be a short consultation, turned into a meeting where we came up with some great solutions and I could get the whole thing done. Now I have a trust I feel good about. Thank you Chris, Justin and Shelly! I love how real and funny you are while at the same time solving those serious legal issues.
