Attorney Jake Joling represents clients in estate planning, probate, and trust administration.

Jake understands that in estate planning, each situation is unique. He works closely with families and individuals on estate plans for clients of all ages—parents of minor children, couples in second or subsequent marriages, as well as individuals and couples with no direct heirs.

Jake handles preparation of wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, financial powers of attorney, healthcare powers of attorney, charitable gifting, adult guardianships, and special needs trusts. He is listed as a recommended service provider for the nonprofit Morgan's Caring Connections to assist with estate plans, trusts, and guardianships for families who have members with disabilities and long-term care needs.

In addition, Jake drafts and reviews prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, which is especially important in marriages where there are children from prior relationships.

In probate, Jake assists families and individuals with the transfer of property, fiduciary disputes, and a wide array of probate issues. He guides clients through Wisconsin Formal and Informal Probate Administration, Special Administration, Trust Administration, and Probate and Special Administration Hearings.

During law school, Jake served as the Senior Program Editor of the Wisconsin International Law Journal, Co-President of Business and Tax Law Society, and Co-President of the Law Student Wellness Coalition.

Jake is available to meet with clients in the firm’s Madison, Janesville, and Dodgeville offices, or online.
