What is Estate Planning?
- Estate planning covers the transfer of property at death and a variety of other personal matters. The core document most often associated with this process is your will. Estate planning ensures that your property is distributed upon your death as you wish. Estate planning provides you and your loved ones peace of mind by establishing what you want done upon your death. A lawyer may or may not be needed to make these plans.
- Estate planning is something lots of us put off doing. How you want your estate to be distributed after your death, is something worth considering and acting upon.
