What is the difference between estate planning and estate administration?
Estate planning is the term we use to describe the set of legal documents that determine what happens to the things you own upon your passing and who will be in control of that process. In addition, a comprehensive plan will also name who will make decisions for you if at some point you are unable to make your own decisions about your health or finances. Learn more about our Estate Planning services.
Estate administration is the process of managing the affairs of the estate after a loved one passes. It can involve the probate process, trust administration, and the managing of estate assets. Learn more about our Estate Administration services.
What is probate?
Probate is the legal process in which a Will is validated, debts are paid, and assets are distributed. It can also involve special procedures when a person dies without a formal Will. Learn more about probate.
Why do people create Trusts?
Many people choose to create Trusts to protect their savings and quality of life now and ensure the inheritance they leave behind makes it safely into the right hands after they pass.
What is a Trust and how do Trusts work?
A Trust is a legal entity in which one party (the trustmaker) gives another party (the trustee) the right to hold and control property for the benefit of a third party (the beneficiary). Like an individual, a Trust can own, buy, and sell accounts and property, as well as distribute income. Learn more about Trusts.
