Estate Planning

Estate Planning Estate planning is the concept of using various legal documents to make sure that your wishes are carried out should you pass away or become incapacitated.

Wills A will is the foundation of most legal life planning. It is the most common and effective estate planning instrument available.

Probate When someone passes away, the legal process of transferring ownership of the decedent's assets and settling the decedent's debts is called probate

Trusts A trust is a fiduciary arrangement that allows a trustee to hold assets on behalf of a beneficiary or beneficiaries.
