Common Questions

Estate Planning FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about estate planning and our services.

When should I start estate planning?

Estate planning is important for adults of all ages. The best time to start is now, especially if you have assets, dependents, or specific wishes about medical care. Early planning provides peace of mind and can be updated as your circumstances change.

What's the difference between a will and a trust?

A will takes effect after death and goes through probate, while a trust can be effective immediately and avoids probate. Trusts offer more privacy and flexibility in asset distribution but typically require more setup and maintenance.

How often should I update my estate plan?

We recommend reviewing your estate plan every 3-5 years or after major life events such as marriage, divorce, births, deaths, significant asset changes, or moving to a different state.

What happens if I don't have an estate plan?

Without an estate plan, your assets will be distributed according to state laws, which may not align with your wishes. This can lead to lengthy probate processes, unnecessary taxes, and family conflicts.
