- Estate PlanningEstate planning is not solely focused on what happens after you die. An effective estate plan also provides for you during your life during periods of temporary or permanent incapacity by authorizing trusted individuals to make decisions on your behalf when necessary, assigns guardians for minor children and aging adults, and defines end-of-life treatment and funeral arrangements. It uses trusts to reduce the countable assets you own when attempting to qualify for Medicaid, disability, or veterans’ benefits.

- TrustsA great way to avoid probate litigation is with a revocable living trust that permits you to title assets into the trust and manage it until your death. Years of managing your assets within this trust type prove that you handle your finances and property exactly as you intended if a contest is brought before a probate judge. Your competent management greatly reduces the risk of litigation as it demonstrates your mental capacity and financial management capability.
