Frequently asked questions

My interests are simple. Do I still need an estate plan?

Yes! It's about ensuring your wishes are followed and not leaving a mess for your loved ones, regardless of how wealthy you are. Learn how to avoid problems for loved ones, such as a lengthy (and costly) probate process. Stocks, real estate, and investments = an estate!

What is probate?

Probate is a court process that occurs after someone passes away, often leading to delays, costs, and stress for loved ones. A solid estate plan, including trusts, can help your family avoid probate entirely. Without an estate plan, you have to go through court before settling affairs

Why do I want to avoid probate?

Without the right legal tools in place, you will need to go through the time-consuming court process of probate before you can do things like get access to a loved one’s accounts, settle affairs, and distribute property.

Who is this presentation for?

This event is designed for retirees or anyone approaching retirement who wants to learn estate planning strategies and is concerned about protecting their healthcare decision making, assets, and family.

What will I gain from this event?

At this event, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge of how a custom estate plan can help accomplish your goals, including ensuring your medical and financial wishes are honored, protecting your family from creditors and predators, and protecting your legacy.

What are the benefits of using trusts vs wills in estate planning?

Trusts offer a variety of benefits in estate planning, including avoiding probate, privacy, and managing asset distribution to beneficiaries. Additionally, living trusts can help minimize estate taxes for couples and provide asset protection for your beneficiaries.
