Be Smart. Put Your Desires In Writing

Estate planning is an arrangement for the distribution of one’s assets upon death, and specifying certain aspects of one’s financial and medical affairs prior to death. A good estate plan is more than the preparation of a Will. An effective estate plan also includes the creation of an estate, the distribution of the estate and, to the greatest degree possible, the protection of the estate from taxation.

A proper estate plan is an essential part of protecting one’s assets, and can greatly facilitate post-death transactions for the friends and family of the deceased, and will often result in lower attorney fees incurred in the administration of the decedent’s estate.
