Estate planning is the process of arranging for the management and disposal of a person’s estate during their life and after death. It typically involves creating documents that specify how assets should be distributed, who should care for minor children, and how end-of-life decisions should be handled.
The key documents in estate planning typically include:
A will is a legal document that specifies how you want your assets distributed after death and goes through probate. A trust, on the other hand, can be used to distribute assets both during your lifetime and after death, and typically avoids probate. Trusts often offer more control and privacy than wills.
Probate is the legal process of validating a will and distributing assets after death. It can be time-consuming and costly. Common ways to avoid probate include:
Yes, estate planning is important regardless of wealth. It helps ensure your wishes are carried out, can reduce family conflicts, and can make things easier for your loved ones during a difficult time. Even with modest assets, you’ll want to specify who receives them and potentially name guardians for minor children.
It’s generally recommended to review your estate plan every 3-5 years or after major life events such as:
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows someone else to act on your behalf in specified matters. It’s important because it ensures someone can manage your affairs if you become incapacitated. There are different types of POAs, including durable POAs (which remain in effect if you become incapacitated) and healthcare POAs (for medical decisions).
Estate planning can help minimize estate and gift taxes. Strategies might include:
If you die without a valid will or trust (known as dying “intestate”), your assets will be distributed according to your state’s intestacy laws. These laws vary by state but typically prioritize spouses and close blood relatives. This may not align with your wishes and can lead to family disputes.
