Estate Planning: Your Family Comes First

Stephanie Thompson, Estate Planning Attorney of Krueger Hernandez & Thompson SC · Jan 11, 2018 ·

When the time comes to create an estate plan, there will be a lot going through your mind. Like most, many details will be associated with money.

While there is a lot to think about, there is one thing you can do to make life easier on yourself: put your family first.

Your estate plan should take into consideration what is best for your family. What will happen to them if you are incapacitated and unable to work? What will happen once you pass on?

Questions to Answer

Creating an estate plan can be a complicated process. It can also be relatively simple if you know what you are doing, spend time on the right details, and get help along the way.

Answer these seven questions to ensure that you are making decisions that will best suit your family:

  • Do you have an estate plan in place?
  • Do you need to make changes to your estate plan?
  • Are you creating an estate plan for the first time?
  • Have you made a list of heirs?
  • Have you discussed your estate plan or estate planning goals with loved ones?
  • Do you know how to avoid common mistakes, such as decisions that will lead to the probate process?
  • Are you familiar with the benefits of hiring an estate planning attorney?

Creating an estate plan means answering questions, thinking about the future, and in some cases, doing things you would rather put on the backburner.

If you put your family first, if you always remember these people are most important to you, it becomes much easier to make confident decisions.

We understand that there is nothing more important to you than your family. For this reason, we are here to answer all your estate planning questions. We will make sure you create a plan that allows you to care for your family, even after you are gone. Call Today to schedule a free consultation.
