Benefits of Estate Planning

While you aren’t required to have your estate in order upon your death, estate planning will take an incredible burden off your loved ones. If you believe you have anything with some significant value, you want to ensure it ends up in the right hands.

  • Avoid Taxes
    • That’s right; the IRS won’t stop bothering you even after you’ve passed away. Or, more specifically, the responsibility of your taxes falls upon the family members who outlive you. However, with some simple estate planning, taxes can be reduced or outright avoided. Our team of lawyers can set up your estate in such a manner to where it incurs the least amount of state inheritance taxes, and your beneficiaries can get the most out of it.
  • Avoid Arguments
    • The last thing you’d want for your family is to send them in disarray after your passing. Thus, it’s so crucial to start your estate planning. By establishing what beneficiaries get and how much, you help avoid some of the inter-family squabblings that would ensue from an unprepared estate. Furthermore, if you’re still young, you can have a plan in place for precisely who’s to care for your children upon your death.
  • Making Tough Decisions
    • Estate planning isn’t always for when you pass away but is sometimes for helping you make difficult decisions you may not be in a position to make. For example, if you were to begin incurring severe health issues and were no longer of sound enough mind to make your own decisions, you could designate someone to make decisions for you. All of this, and more, is gone over in estate planning.
