Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a will and a trust?

A will outlines how your assets will be distributed after your death and may require probate. A trust, on the other hand, allows for the management and distribution of your assets during your lifetime and after, often avoiding probate.

Do I need an estate plan if I don't have a large estate?

Yes. Estate planning is not just for the wealthy; it's about ensuring your wishes are honored, your loved ones are cared for, and potential legal complications are minimized.

How often should I update my estate plan?

It's advisable to review your estate plan every 3-5 years or after significant life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or substantial changes in assets.
