F.A.Q.

Why should I prepare an estate plan?

Answer: An estate plan allows you to decide who inherits your property, when they receive it, and under what conditions. Without one, state laws will decide, which may not align with your wishes.

What is probate?

Answer: Probate is a court-supervised process to distribute a deceased person’s estate, often lengthy and costly, making it vital to consider tools like trusts to avoid it.

What is the difference between a will and a revocable trust?

Answer: A will directs asset distribution after death, while a revocable trust holds and manages assets during your lifetime and can avoid probate, offering privacy and efficiency.

What is an estate?

Answer: An estate consists of all property owned at death, including real estate, investments, and personal belongings, managed and distributed through estate planning.

How much does estate planning cost?

Answer: Costs vary based on estate complexity, with larger estates or those with complex family dynamics typically costing more. Discussing fees with an attorney during an initial consultation is advisable.
