  • Wills

We will help you make those decisions in advance so you can be assured that your wishes will be followed.

Wills Or Trusts: What You Need To Know

One of the most common concerns for people seeking to create or update an estate plan is whether they need to create a will and if that is sufficient for their needs. While wills are a fantastic basic option for most people, they are limited in many ways. There are other tools you may need to incorporate into your estate plan, including:

  • A Trust: Trusts create a legal entity which holds your property. This can let you create rules about how your heirs can use your funds, insulate your estate from certain taxes and protect you financially if you need nursing care.
  • A Power Of Attorney: This document lets you put someone in charge of your legal and financial decisions if you are very sick.
  • A Healthcare Directive: These directives will create a set of clear expectations about your medical care, who can make decisions about it and the ways you want to be treated in an emergency.

These documents, in conjunction with your will can mean your family takes care of things the way you want.
