TRUSTS | WILLS & ESTATES

EARLY PLANNING IS CRITICAL

 Your estate is a composite of everything that falls under your individual ownership.

Many people forgo the estate planning process because they assume their personal possessions lack value. On other occasions, people simply delay the planning process because they simply do not expect bad things to happen, at least as far as they foresee. But they unfortunately do and are often unforeseeable .Always plan ahead, because life is unpredictable

Contrary to popular belief, estate planning is ideal for everyone, not simply the retired segments of the population. You’ve worked hard for the assets you’ve built and you should shield them from claims or liabilities before they arise.

You may wonder why asset is protection so important to consider — after all, isn’t that what a will is for?

WILLS vs ESTATE PLANNING

A will can be part of a comprehensive estate plan, but it can be can give survivors only property after your death.

An estate plan can include different types of investment instruments and/or trusts to protect your assets from potential claims even before death, and give you great control over designating the manner and details of the distribution of your estate and and survivors, after death — like transferring a business to a child or controlling the time and amount by which minor children inherit in addition to adding age and other conditions before survivors inherit.
