It is important that a family's interests be provided for in the event of the death, divorce, incapacitation or remarriage of a member. As difficult as it is to discuss these uncomfortable topics, the reassurance offered by a carefully drafted will, trust or prenuptial agreement often allows families to strengthen their relationships and more easily adjust to change.
Estate Planning Is for Everyone
Even if you have few financial assets, you can make your wishes known through a living will, a will and power of attorney. By having a will or setting up a trust fund, you bind the probate court to pass your property and heirlooms to your intended heirs, and give your family and medical providers directions in case of your incapacity.
The Probate Process
Since probate may be a confusing process, it is often helpful to have the knowledge and guidance of an experienced attorney when dealing with probate issues. Probate is the process through which a will is proved valid or invalid after a death. Also included in probate is the filing of necessary paperwork in the proper office. A will has no validity unless it goes through the probate process. We walk clients through the probate process step-by-step, helping them understand what to expect and the potential outcomes.
