The Importance of Estate Planning

According to a survey conducted by Caring, a senior care resources company, only 4 in 10 American adults have a will or living trust. While 81% of those over 72 have estate planning documents, younger generations often delay this critical task. However, estate planning is crucial for everyone, especially younger individuals with children or modest property and assets.

If you’re uncertain about estate planning, consider the following issues that a comprehensive estate plan can address:

• Who will inherit my property and assets if I pass away?
• Who will make decisions on my behalf if I become incapacitated?
• Who will manage my investments and personal affairs after my passing?
• Will my disabled child receive the necessary care if I’m no longer there?
• How can I minimize expenses, taxes, and delays related to my assets?
• Who will provide for my children if I die unexpectedly?
• If my spouse inherits my estate, will they distribute my property according to my wishes?
• Who will take care of my pets?

A robust estate plan offers peace of mind by documenting your wishes and safeguarding your family and loved ones.

Why Hire an Estate Planning Attorney?

An estate planning attorney’s expertise can be invaluable, especially for complex wills or situations where you anticipate disputes or wish to disinherit an heir. Generally, anything beyond a straightforward will benefit from the experience and knowledge of an estate planning lawyer.

Additionally, an estate planning attorney can assist with modifications or amendments to wills, trusts, powers of attorney, or other documents. Life circumstances change, and your estate plan may need adjustments. Having an attorney guide you through this process helps protect your interests and ensures that your wishes remain intact.

An estate planning attorney is also instrumental in navigating the probate process, trust administration, or estate-related litigation. These matters can be intricate, involving various actions and documents. Your experienced estate planning attorney ensures you avoid costly errors and safeguards your rights.
