Everyone needs an estate plan. "Estate planning" is the umbrella term used to describe the use of wills, trusts, powers of attorney, guardianships and other legal documents that an individual may use to specify — in a legally binding way — answers to questions such as:
- What happens to my minor or disabled children when I die or if I become incapacitated?
- Who will have control over my finances if I become incapacitated?
- What are my wishes regarding resuscitation and other health care decisions?
- Who gets my assets (house, car, business, stocks, life insurance, etc.) when I die? When do they get them? How do they get them?
- How can I specify the ways in which my chosen heirs make use of any assets I leave to them?
- How can I keep a family-owned business in the family after my death?
- How can I minimize the negative impact of estate taxes and the costs associated with probate?
Did you know? If you have a "pay on death" "transfer on death," “right of survivorship” or other beneficiary designation on a bank account, certificate of deposit, IRA, life insurance policy or other financial account, that beneficiary designation will trump any designations you make in your will. Get a complete review of your financial assets to make sure your wishes regarding inheritance are honored.
