Estate planning is a process in which you create a plan to transfer your assets to heirs with the least amount of difficulty and expense. For us, estate planning also includes taking steps to protect your family from unnecessary taxes, as well as long-term care expenses, creditors, and complications that arise from disability.
Trusts
A living trust is a trust arrangement created during your lifetime under which you name a trustee to manage property for a beneficiary. Usually, a living trust is created to be a substitute for a will, and you can personally be the trustee and beneficiary while you are living. A living trust is typically revocable and amendable during your lifetime. If kept up to date, the living trust will pass your assets to your family or other beneficiaries without a probate at your death. A properly drafted trust can also reduce or eliminate taxes.
