Everyone's circumstances are different. Therefore, it is important to analyze every aspect of your situation, and what the future may hold, so you can determine what is right for you and whether probate avoidance, incapacity planning, and trust protections have value to you and those you love. Without an estate plan in place, you and your family are left completely unprotected. We are happy to help you determine whether a will or a trust makes sense for your situation. We know that just thinking about creating a will or trust can be overwhelming. There are so many questions. Why should you avoid probate? What is the difference between a will and a trust? What happens if I die without a will? Let us answer your questions and bring clarity to this process. You do not have to make these critical decisions alone—we are here to help.
If you are not an estate planning attorney, these legal concepts tend to remain merely that—concepts. So, if you are unclear about the nuances of wills and trusts, know that you are not alone. We will explain the difference between these documents, help you understand all the talk about "avoiding probate," and discuss other important documents that should be included in a comprehensive estate plan.
At Janyl Smith, P.A., we are dedicated to understanding not only your desires for your assets, but also the life you want to live and the legacy you want to leave. We will work with you every step of the way to ensure you understand the choices you are making so you feel empowered to make them.
