Estate Planning Services

Estate planning is the preservation and the distribution of your assets, both during your life and upon your death. It is accomplishing your personal and family goals and easing the management of your financial and legal affairs, as well as minimizing taxes if your estate is large enough for taxes to be of concern. When we talk about an estate, we mean all assets of any value that you own, including real property, business interests, investments, insurance proceeds, personal property and even your personal effects. An “estate plan,” generally, refers to the means by which your estate is passed on to your loved ones on your death, as well as appointing others to act in the event you become incapacitated. Estate planning can be accomplished through a variety of methods, including:

  • Revocable Living Trusts
  • Last Will and Testament
  • Lifetime Gifting
  • Joint Ownership
  • Beneficiary Designations
  • Powers of Attorney
  • Living Will

Problems often arise when people don’t coordinate all of these methods of passing on their estate. If you have a well-drafted estate plan in place, you will ensure that your estate passes to whom you want, when you want, and is carried out in the manner you’ve chosen. But you need to be aware of the many options that exist in estate planning – and you must choose your estate planning attorney wisely.
