Maybe you have come to the conclusion that estate planning is something you must do while you are alive. This is true, and it is also true none of us know how long we have left here on earth. Estate planning is all about preparing your assets to be passed on to your heirs using the best methods possible. If you have assets and loved ones then there is never a better time for action than the present.

An estate planning attorney should be able to look at your entire financial picture. Combining this information with your current family needs should allow your attorney to suggest a plan that is right for you. Some of the concerns you should be discussing are avoiding probate court, issues regarding minor children and taxes.

Sometimes a will is all you need, but as your estate grows be aware of all the options you have available. An estate plan is an ongoing process and a yearly checkup is recommended. Assets like bank accounts and real estate should be looked at as well as any new life insurance policies or retirement accounts.

I just want to thank you for this site. It answered my questions. I think many people that do research on the net take it for granted and when they find what they are looking for they forget "someone put time, money, etc into providing me with this information."

Thank you!
