When to start estate planning?
If you own a home, have children or dependents or have financial assets – now is the time to begin the estate planning process. Establishing an estate plan offers you and your loved ones “peace of mind” in the event of your untimely death.
Do I need an estate plan?
Having an estate plan in place directs the probate court to order the assets of any person who owns the property upon death, to be distributed as the individual desired. In the unfortunate circumstance where there is no will in place, the court will interject itself by the laws set forth by Interstate Succession for Estate Administration.
