What Is Estate Planning?
Estate planning legally prepares for managing and distributing your assets during your lifetime and after death.
A complete estate plan addresses:
- Who will inherit your property
- Who will manage your affairs if you become incapacitated
- How to minimize taxes, court involvement, and family conflict
Estate planning is not just for the wealthy. It is essential for anyone who wants to make decisions about healthcare, finances, and their family's future.
Essential Estate Planning Tools
The Law Offices of Justin Rickman offers a full range of estate planning services tailored to your needs. These include the following:
- Wills. Legal documents that state how your assets should be distributed after death and name a personal representative to carry out your wishes.
- Durable powers of attorney. Appoints someone to manage your financial and legal affairs if you become unable to do so.
- Health care surrogate designations. Names a trusted person who can make medical decisions on your behalf if you are incapacitated.
- Living wills. Expresses your preferences regarding life-sustaining treatment if you are terminally ill or in a persistent vegetative state.
- Trusts. Allows you to manage and distribute your assets without probate and offers flexibility during your lifetime.
