Estate
planning is not only for the rich or the elite. If you have assets or own property,
you have an estate and therefore you should have a plan! Your estate is what you leave after you die.
In order to control how it is done, who gets your property, and when they get
it you need a plan.
People who do estate planning want to make sure
that their assets are passed on to their loved ones without problems, without
high legal fees, and without time delays. Sometimes, people do estate planning
to make sure that a particular person, such as a spouse or a child, is
protected. Often, someone does planning to make sure that they have enough
assets to live on for the rest of their life. An estate planning attorney helps
you make this happen!
