Estate planning is an important strategy for arranging financial affairs and protecting your family — here are 5 reasons why everyone needs an estate plan:

  • Estate planning is important for everyone, no matter their age or wealth.
  • It avoids taxes and legal tie-ups, and ensures funds are passed on or bequeathed as you wish.
  • And it appoints the right people to take care of your kids and even you if you’re incapacitated.

What is estate planning?

Your estate is essentially everything you own, including your home or other property, car, bank accounts, investments, life insurance, furniture, and personal possessions.

1. Estate planning goes beyond a will

Many people think of a will and an estate plan as the same thing. They’re not.

2. Estate planning saves time and money

The probate process involves paperwork and court appearances by lawyers, and the estate pays their fees. It can be time-consuming, taking months and even years. Given the legal bills, it can end up being quite costly for surviving family members.

You can significantly reduce the time and expense of dying intestate by estate planning. Specifically:

  • Creating a will that names an executor of your estate
  • Making sure all your investment accounts (IRA’s 401k’s, brokerage/bank accounts) have correct, living beneficiaries.

3. Estate planning avoids big taxes

One reason estate planning is often associated with the super-rich: estate taxes. But there are other considerations!

4. Estate planning protects children

If you die together with your spouse or without a surviving spouse to take care of your children and other dependents, who will get custody of them?

5. Estate planning takes care of you too!

It can also include a durable power of attorney and healthcare proxy – two important legal documents that ensure your wishes will be carried out if you’re temporarily or permanently incapable of handling them.

The bottom line

Estate planning isn’t only for the rich, and it doesn’t have to be an overly complicated or expensive process. An experienced estate-planning lawyer can work with you to create an estate plan customized to your needs, financial affairs, and family situation.
