FAQ

The details that complete your estate plan.

A strong estate plan is not just about wills and trusts. Supporting documents are the foundation that make your plan complete, enforceable, and easy for your loved ones to follow. At Carma Legal, we provide every document necessary to ensure your plan works seamlessly in Nevada and North Carolina. These documents prevent confusion, reduce disputes, and keep your wishes front and center.
Personal Injury FAQs
How much does it cost to hire Carma Legal for a personal injury case?
We work on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront. Our fee is only collected if we recover compensation for you.
It depends on the complexity of the claim, medical treatment timelines, and negotiations with insurance companies. Some cases resolve in a few months, while others require litigation and may take longer.
You may be entitled to medical expenses, lost wages, future care costs, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, property damage, and in some cases punitive damages.

Most cases settle without trial, but we prepare every case as if it will go to court. That preparation strengthens your position in negotiations.

Seek medical care, report the accident, document the scene, preserve evidence, and contact us before speaking to the insurance company.

Estate Planning FAQs
Do I need both a will and a trust?
Not everyone needs both. Wills are essential for naming guardians and distributing assets. Trusts are valuable for avoiding probate, maintaining privacy, and providing structured inheritance.
Review your plan every 3 to 5 years or after major life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, relocation, or a significant change in assets.
State laws decide who inherits your property and who makes decisions if you become incapacitated. This often leads to delays, expense, and outcomes that do not reflect your wishes.
A Power of Attorney names someone to make financial or healthcare decisions for you. An Advance Directive provides written instructions to guide medical providers and your healthcare agent.

Yes. You can amend or revoke estate planning documents at any time while competent. We recommend regular reviews to keep your plan current.
