What Is Estate Planning?

Estate planning is the legal process of preparing for the management and distribution of your assets, both during your life and after your death. It’s also about making sure your personal, financial, and healthcare wishes are honored if you’re ever unable to make decisions on your own.

A complete estate plan may include:

  • A Will – Outlines who will receive your property after you pass and can name guardians for minor children.
  • A Trust – Helps protect your assets, avoid probate, and ensure a smoother transfer of property to your chosen beneficiaries.
  • Powers of Attorney – Helps protect your assets, avoid probate, and ensure a smoother transfer of property to your chosen beneficiaries.
  • Advance Medical Directives – Clearly state your healthcare preferences so your loved ones and doctors know how to proceed during a medical crisis.

We often hear a common misconception that estate planning only benefits wealthy or retired people, this is false. If you have loved ones or responsibilities, you need a plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

A: Probate is the process of court administration and distribution of your assets and property, either according to the state’s laws or a will if it has been created. The probate process may be fine if you have a reasonably simple estate. However, it is still best for you to have a will in place for the court to follow.

Having a will ensures that your assets are distributed to your specifications. Without a will, the court will be required to follow the distribution plans following state law, which may not be how you would want it.

There are ways to avoid probate. It may be the right course for you if you have a more significant estate, want privacy, and want to avoid the time and costs that occur with the probate process.

A: Asking questions during a consultation is practical and illuminative. We want you to have confidence in everything you need to know moving forward.

Here are some potential questions you can ask to help you decide who you want to work with:

  1. How long have you been practicing law?
  2. What are the costs that are included in any estate plan made?
  3. What are the primary documents needed for my estate?
  4. What should I do with my documents once I leave here?
  5. How long does it take for the documents to be created?
  6. How do you address updates for the estate plans that are made?

Another idea is to look at other clients’ reviews and testimonials about working with them.

By finding the right estate planning attorney for you, you will have an excellent resource for you and your family.

A: Any time is a good time to talk to an estate planning attorney. It is best to speak with an attorney during the second quarter of life to plan ahead. However, talking with one becomes imperative once you begin the third quarter of life. There could be dangerous situations by waiting till late into the third quarter of life.

The most essential requirement is to speak with an attorney when you are in good health. Completing your estate planning needs should occur when you are alive and competent. It allows you to participate in significant decisions and address any concerns ahead of time so that everyone is prepared for anything that may happen to you.
