Answers to Your Vital Estate Planning Queries
What is estate planning and why is it important?
Estate planning is arranging and managing your assets for when you pass away or are incapacitated. It ensures that your estate is distributed according to your wishes, reduces taxes, and simplifies the administration of your affairs.
Can I write my own will, or do I need an attorney?
While possible to write your own will, using an attorney ensures it complies with state laws and your wishes are clear and legally binding.
What is probate, and how long does the process usually take?
Probate is the legal process for distributing a deceased persons estate. It typically takes several months to over a year depending on the estate complexity and state laws.
What are the advantages of setting up a trust instead of a will?
Trusts offer control over asset distribution, reduce taxes, avoid probate, and keep details private.
Do I need estate planning if I dont have a lot of assets
Yes, estate planning is important even if you do not have a large number of assets. It helps ensure that whatever personal possessions and assets you have are transferred smoothly, your wishes are followed, and your loved ones are provided for in your absence.
How often should I update my estate plan?
Review and update your estate plan every three to five years or after major life changes.
