Kristal Bowman-Carter provides high-quality legal solutions with a client-centered focus. From her office in Park City, Utah, she provides estate planning and business formation legal services.
Using the experience she has gained in more than 18 years as an attorney, Ms. Bowman-Carter practices estate planning with care. She believes that estate planning is more than just planning for death - it is planning for life. Estate planning is a process during which she works closely with each of her clients to learn their needs and objectives. She then drafts customized estate planning instruments including wills, trusts, durable powers of attorney and advance health care directives to help clients achieve their goals, which may include providing for minor children, forming or creating a business succession plan for an LLC, providing for incapacity or making charitable contributions.
Estate planning is not a one-time only process. As one's circumstances change, whether it be through the accumulation of wealth, a birth or adoption, a marriage, life partnership, business partnership or divorce, the elements of an estate plan may change as well and require review and updates. While estate plans vary by individual, one common estate planning tool Ms. Bowman-Carter employs for her clients is a revocable living trust. A revocable living trust allows an individual to retain control over his or her assets during life while protecting and directing distribution to loved ones at death, to provide credit protection for the beneficiaries and to avoid gift and estate taxes where applicable through the use of redistribution using the unlimited marital deduction and transfer of appreciating assets either in full or in fractionalized shares, further reducing their taxable value.
Planning for the future includes more than planning for death. It also involves planning for anticipated or unanticipated incapacity. It is equally important for younger families and older adults, married and single individuals and the wealthy and the not-so-wealthy.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
