Estate Planning

You might wonder why you even need an estate plan. Maybe you do not have minor children, or you do not think of yourself as wealthy, or you think that your family members always get along, and so you think – “this doesn’t apply to me!” Although you’re not alone in thinking that, we would encourage you to reframe your perspective on planning. More than half of Americans have no planning in place.  The lack of a plan can create unanticipated challenges and hurdles for your family and loved ones if something unexpected happens.  For example, have you thought about what might happen to you in the event of a medical emergency? Who do you trust to act on your behalf with regards to your medical and financial decisions? What is the plan for any assets or important family items you might have? How do you ensure people you care about are taken care of? We understand that planning for a future without you in can seem uncomfortable, but a future without a plan can be far more complicated than it seems. Working with Legacy Planning & Probate, LLC, to create an effective estate plan or documents to direct care in case of an emergency is one of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones.
