Estate Planning for Loveland Families
Loveland has a strong base of longtime residents and retirees — people who've built something here over decades and who may have an estate plan from years ago that no longer reflects where they are today. It also draws families putting down roots for the first time, with younger clients who've been meaning to get something in place since they bought a home or had children.
Both situations are ones Nicole works with regularly. For clients with existing plans, a review can identify gaps, outdated provisions, and changes in Colorado law that may affect how your documents hold up. For first-time clients, the consultation covers which documents make sense for your situation and what the process looks like from start to finish.
In either case, the first step is a free 30-minute consultation.

Estate Planning Services for Loveland Clients
If you're serving as executor of an estate or managing affairs after a family member has passed, we can walk you through every step of the proces
Probate
A will directs who inherits your property, names your executor, and — for parents — legally designates a guardian for your minor children. If you have an existing will, Nicole can review it and identify whether it still reflects your current situation and meets Colorado's requirements.
A revocable living trust transfers assets without probate, provides for incapacity, and gives you control over distributions. For Loveland homeowners with appreciated real estate and retirement assets, a trust often provides more protection and privacy than a will alone.
A durable financial power of attorney and a medical power of attorney authorize trusted people to manage your finances and healthcare decisions immediately, without court involvement. These documents are especially important to have before health situations make them harder to execute.

If Your Estate Plan Is Years Out of Date, Now Is a Good Time
Many Loveland residents have estate plans — but made them years or even decades ago. A lot can change: marriages, divorces, the birth of grandchildren, the death of a named executor or beneficiary, significant changes in assets, and updates to Colorado law.
An estate plan that was correct five or ten years ago may have gaps today. It might name someone who's no longer available to serve as executor. It might not account for a trust that's been created since. It might predate changes in federal estate tax law or Colorado's probate code.
A review with Nicole will tell you whether your existing documents are still doing what you intended — and what, if anything, needs to be updated. It's one of the more straightforward conversations we have, and one of the most valuable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does McGann Law Group serve Loveland, Colorado?
Yes. We serve Loveland clients with wills, trusts, powers of attorney, living wills, probate support, and estate plan reviews. The nearest in-person office is in Fort Collins at 2580 East Harmony Road, Suite 201 — a short drive up Highway 287. Virtual consultations by Zoom or phone are also available.
I have an estate plan from years ago. Do I need to update it?
Probably worth a review. Common reasons an older plan needs updating: a named executor, agent, or beneficiary has died or is no longer the right choice; you've had significant changes in assets; you've moved to Colorado from another state; your family structure has changed through marriage, divorce, or the birth of children or grandchildren; or it's simply been more than five years and you haven't revisited it. A consultation will tell you quickly whether your documents still hold up.
Who handles probate in Larimer County?
Larimer County probate matters are filed through the Larimer County District Court. Nicole is familiar with Larimer County probate procedures and can represent executors and families through the process.
My parents are aging and don't have any documents in place. What should they prioritize?
Powers of attorney — both financial and medical — are typically the most time-sensitive. If a parent becomes incapacitated before those documents are signed, the family may need to go to court to get authority to act. A will and healthcare directive are also important, but powers of attorney should be the first priority when someone's health is already a concern. Nicole works with adult children and aging parents on this regularly.
Can I meet with Nicole virtually if driving to Fort Collins isn't convenient?
Yes. After booking, Nicole will confirm your preferred format — in-person at the Fort Collins office, by Zoom, or by phone. All three are available for Loveland clients.
