Call (406) 897-7133 to schedule a free consultation.
Do I need to visit the Columbia Falls office in person, or can I work with Tanko Law remotely?
Both options are available. You're welcome to meet with our attorneys at the Columbia Falls office for an in-person consultation, but Tanko Law also offers the ability to handle your entire estate plan by phone, video call, or online. This flexibility is especially helpful for clients in more rural areas of the Flathead Valley and northwestern Montana who may have difficulty traveling. Whether you're creating a new estate plan or updating an existing trust or will, our team can guide you through every step from wherever you are.
I just moved to the Columbia Falls area. When should I update my estate plan?
If you've recently relocated to Columbia Falls or anywhere in Montana, it's a good idea to have your existing estate plan reviewed by a Montana attorney as soon as possible. Estate planning laws vary by state, and documents like trusts, wills, and powers of attorney may not function as intended under Montana law. This is especially important if you're moving from a community property state, as Montana follows equitable distribution rules that could affect how your assets are classified and transferred. A review with a local estate planning attorney ensures your plan is valid, up to date, and properly aligned with Montana's legal requirements.
