FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A will takes effect after you pass away and goes through probate court.

An estate planning attorney can help you determine which option best fits your situation.
A power of attorney is a legal document that designates someone you trust to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Without one, your family may need to petition the court for guardianship, which is costly and time-consuming.
You should review your estate plan every 3 to 5 years, or whenever a major life change occurs such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, a significant change in assets, or a move to a new state. Regular reviews ensure your documents still reflect your wishes.
Yes, assets held in a properly funded revocable living trust pass directly to your beneficiaries without going through probate. This can save your family significant time, court costs, and legal fees while keeping your estate matters private.
