About
My mission is simple: I help you protect your family and preserve your assets. I focus on estate planning and business planning. I also help people deal with the probate process in Connecticut, if a loved one has passed away. I understand that you want to pass down your values, not just your assets, so I include tools to help you pass down your wisdom, life lessons, and experiences. lf you'd like, I can create a Lasting Legacy video as part of your estate plan. You sit down with me , a digital video camera, and with your spouse if you are married, and I ask you thought provoking questions which lead to discussions about values, wisdom, influences and philosophy. As a part of your estate plan I give you a DVD with the video of that conversation. You really can’t put a price tag on a treasured conversation like this.

Steve was expert, professional and very helpful... he knew what we didn't, and clearly knows his way around financial and estate planning issues.
My wife and I worked with Steve Basche and his team on a complete set of estate documents after the birth of our first child. We had a variety of nuances and preferences that we wanted our estate documents to accommodate, and Steve and his team were responsive, thoughtful, and consultative. Steve and his team were willing to make phone calls and perform independent research to double and triple check some of the more complicated pieces of our estate plan, and were more than willing to turn several sets of markups to make sure our estate plans reflected our wishes. I could not ask for a more responsive attorney & team - I would highly recommend Steve, Melanie, and Hassett & George for a host of legal services. We value the relationship we've built with Steve & team, and look forward to continuing to work with him for all future legal needs.
Attorney Basche helped me create a living trust, will, advanced directives, and final disposition Instructions giving me the peace of mind of my wealth succession. We sat down on several occasions for him to clearly understand my desires and legal implications. He is a good listener and created directives that are clear. I reviewed these with my financial planner who was impressed by his thoroughness. Steve created a binder and CD of the estate planning portfolio at a very reasonable price. He offered to be of assistance when the time comes when the trust will be executed. Jack Windsor, CT
Steve was great to work with. He had great suggestions for provision for our Trust. Explained all of our options and why we might want one provision over another. I wouldn't hesitate working with Steve in the future.
I contacted Steven after finding him on the internet. I was going on vacation and wanted to get a will done before I left as I had been putting it off for a long time. He was very prompt and had it done for me within a week. Contacted me promptly in all the dealings with my will. I would highly recommend him.
Steven guided me thru the many details of selling my business. He's very knowledgeable of what a seller needs from start to final closing. I was very satisfied and later had Steven prepare all the documents related to our Estate Planning. My wife and I found Steven very pleasant and easy to work with. We would highly recommend him to others.
Steve helped me sort through some very important life planning decisions when my husband passed away last year. In addition to handling my probate, Steve patiently explained options relative to setting up my will and the trust funds for my teenage children. My situation was complicated by an out of state property holding . Steve procured an attorney for me in that state, insuring that the probate and structure of the trust fund would meet state requirements. In all our meetings, he took time to understand what I wanted to accomplish, helping me to think through the various scenarious that could impact my children's future. I would recommend Steve as counsel to anyone who is in need of patient, thoughtful legal advice.
Steve Basche was of tremendous assistance to me and what I required. He listened to what I needed then followed through. His response time was very timely. I found him to be fair and respected his opinion. I would not hestitate to ask for his assistance again.
I was referred to Steve by a neighbor who had a contact in the field who recommended him when I was looking for a Real Estate Lawyer to represent my Mother and I (as her POA) in the sale of her house. Steve was resourceful and helpful at every turn, and made the experience less harrowing than I ever anticipated.
Steve put together a will and trust for my wife and I. We were very satisfied with his work product, ethics and expediency . Steve spent a lot of time getting to know us and determining what was important to us so that he could provide the best products to meet our needs. We'd recommend Steve for these types of services.
