- WillsOne primary difference between a will and trust is that a will takes effect soon after a person passes away. A trust, on the other hand, takes effect immediately after it has been created. A will indicates the people who will receive certain assets or property after the owner passes. Usually, a will lists smaller items of property, such as jewelry, furniture, artwork, collectibles, etc. If you have children, a will can also name the guardian you wish to appoint to take care of your children. A will also requires probate to legally transfer all assets and property named in the will to the designated beneficiaries. As such, a guarantor will be named in a will to help with the transference process.

- Power of AttorneyEstate plans can cover assets ranging from houses and cars to jewelry and family heirlooms. For families with minor children, an estate plan can assign guardianship should both parents pass away or become incapacitated. In general, a strong plan will name an executor to oversee the terms of the estate, set up power of attorney, make funeral arrangements, name beneficiaries, and limit the amount of taxes those beneficiaries will have to pay upon receipt of their inheritance.
