Frequently Asked Questions
Get Answers to Your Most Common Legal Questions
An estate plan is a set of legal documents that outline how your assets will be managed and distributed after your death. It helps ensure your wishes are followed, reduces the burden on your loved ones, and can minimize taxes. Everyone, regardless of wealth, can benefit from having an estate plan.
A will is a legal document that specifies how your assets will be distributed after your death. A trust, on the other hand, is a legal entity that holds and manages assets on behalf of beneficiaries, both during your life and after your death. Trusts can help avoid probate and provide greater control over asset distribution.
Protecting your business involves various legal strategies, including forming the right business structure (LLC, corporation), drafting clear contracts, securing intellectual property, and ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. Regular legal audits can also help identify potential risks.
You should review and update your estate plan whenever you experience major life changes, such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, significant changes in financial status, or the purchase of a new property. Regular updates ensure your estate plan reflects your current wishes.
