WHY IS NOW A GOOD TIME TO TAKE ACTION ON
ESTATE PLANNING OR ESTATE ADMINISTRATION?
If you have family, or assets of any kind, estate planning is critical. Without a legally sound plan in place, all sorts of problems arise, such as:
- Your wealth could go to unintended beneficiaries
- The state will determine who will become the new guardians for minor children
- Beneficiaries could suffer an enormous tax burden
Estate administration is difficult by nature. Emotions are high and everyone involved is trying to sort through ensuring their loved one's wishes are carried out, while also trying to make sure their own rights are protected. You'll want an estate administration attorney involved in the following scenarios:
- The executor is unfamiliar with probate procedure, and would like support through the process of navigating estate administration
- The estate is large, with a complicated combination of assets and debts, or the estate contains a business
- The estate does not have enough assets to cover its debts
- There is discord in the family of any kind with regards to the will
