Purpose Of Estate Planning
Estate planning is the way to have your assets distributed to family, friends, and charities after you’re gone. While this is a major part of estate planning, it is not the only time Estate Planning should be a consideration.
Through comprehensive estate planning, you will be able to determine an appropriate guardian for any minor children, should the need arise. Estate planning also includes deciding how your healthcare, legal, and financial affairs will be managed in the event you become temporarily or permanently disabled or incapacitated and cannot see to these matters for yourself.
Estate planning is for everyone, at any age and with any size of estate. Without proper estate planning, these vital decisions could end up being made by a judge who doesn’t know you or your needs or desires. We’ll take the time to help you through this process and make sure your estate plan reflects your wishes and will be effective and enforceable when needed.
