The Basics of Estate Planning - Overview & Importance

Estate planning is not only for the wealthy or elderly—it’s for everyone who wants to protect their loved ones and ensure their wishes are honored.
A well-crafted estate plan gives you control, security, and peace of mind.
What’s Included?
✅ A Will – Determines asset distribution & guardians for minor children
✅ A Trust – Provides privacy, control, & flexibility over your estate
✅ Power of Attorney – Ensures someone you trust can manage your finances if needed
✅ Healthcare Directive – Specifies medical preferences & appoints a decision-maker
✅ Beneficiary Designations – Directs retirement accounts & life insurance benefits

No one likes to think about it, but not having an estate plan can leave your family with stress, legal battles, and financial uncertainty.

Here’s what could happen:
❌ The state decides who inherits your assets (not you!)
❌ No control over guardianship for your minor children
❌ A long, costly probate process for your loved ones
❌ Increased risk of family disputes over inheritance
❌ No say in medical or financial decisions if you become incapacitated
