A solid Estate Plan is a key component to a Comprehensive Financial Plan.
The Estate Planning Process involves not only looking at what you have in terms of assets and liabilities, but also at what you believe in, how you feel about your family's future if you are not around, the succession of your business and your thoughts on the legacy that you leave. It is much more than having a Will. It could incorporate the use of trusts, Power of Attorney appointments, charitable giving and other planning ideas to minimize taxes & estate costs as well as making a smooth transition of your wealth to those that will likely survive you.
Developing a comprehensive and successful financial and estate plan is a complex process that requires a professional's expertise.
