Estate & Financial Planning


LegalZoom Estate Planning


You don’t need a large estate to plan ahead. Estate planning will help you ensure your financial future, and that of your heirs. An experienced estate planner will help you prepare the right legal documents and create a specific plan for what to do with your assets after you’ve passed away. Without a proper estate plan, your assets may end up going into probate and distribution will be determined by an administrator of your estate. It’s your estate planner’s job to keep up with all the new tax, inheritance, and business laws, helping you craft key documents, including:


  • an advanced health care directive;


  • life insurance and other key insurance policies;


  • durable power of attorney;


  • pour-over Will;


  • and a Trust, as having a Trust exempts you from probate.
