No matter your age or family status, every adult needs an estate plan – a formal process to address a sudden or gradual disability and death. This is even more critical for those with minor children, dependents with special needs, blended families, individual or family-owned businesses, and other unique financial or family situations.
We're dedicated to assisting individuals and their families meet aging loved one’s needs. The high cost of long-term care has made planning a critically important issue for most middle-class seniors and their families. In fact, most seniors will likely require some form of long-term care. Sadly, many of them are unprepared for the significant financial burdens it places on their family’s hard-earned savings.
When a loved one passes away, their estate often goes through a court-managed process called probate or estate administration, where the deceased's assets are managed and distributed. If your loved one owned their assets through a well-drafted and properly funded living trust, no court-managed administration is likely necessary. However, the successor trustee needs to administer the distribution of the deceased's assets.
