Creating an Estate Plan
There are a lot of elements involved in creating an estate plan, which our team can assist you with.
When creating an estate plan, here are some questions you can ask to assist in creating an estate plan that will meet your specific goals:
- Are you trying to protect your spouse and children?
- Are you trying to avoid probate?
- Do you have a family business or farm you wish to leave for your children?
- Are you trying to protect your assets from creditors or lawsuits?
- Are you trying to protect your children’s inheritance from potentially failed marriages?
There are many parts involved in an estate plan and, depending on your needs and goals, yours may include the following:
- Will
- Financial power of attorney
- Healthcare power of attorney
- Living will
- Trust
If you were to become incapacitated, having a power of attorney, someone whom you trust and who understands your wishes can be crucial for ensuring your healthcare and financial wishes are respected. Additionally, if you have minor children, having a will in place will allow you to assign a guardian for them in case you and their other parent pass.
