Back to School, Back to Estate Planning
After a long hot summer, we’re starting to see the promise of fall and the start of hurricane season. Children are returning to school, we’re having some milder weather in the mornings and evenings, and the fall and Halloween merchandise on display in stores reminds us of shift of seasons. There’s a lot of activity all around us, traffic is getting busier, and a lot more activity is on the way as football season starts and the year moves on.
Times changing and life moving forward are a certainty in our own lives, too. Just as we think we have things settled and in order, a new season arrives, things get busy, and our lives inevitably change. Our personal lives and family situations are always changing.
One of the best things we can all to to prepare for the inevitable changing seasons in our lives is to establish and update our Estate Plans. This is one of the most important and loving things that we can do for ourselves and our loved ones. With proper planning you are able to enjoy life more in the present and also better enjoy your future.
Revocable Living Trusts are an excellent way to address your, and your family’s, current and future needs. There are numerous benefits to Revocable Living Trusts that include flexibility to change and update them over time, privacy, avoiding probate, minimizing tax liabilities, and even preparing for the possible of incapacity and long-term care.
Peace of mind is a benefit our clients often tell us they have after establishing a Revocable Living Trust. They, and their family members, have also shared with us how much they benefited later, during a time of facing illness or death of a loved one, by having their Estate Plans in place and current. The immediate and long-term benefits of Trust Planning helped them enjoy good times more and manage difficult times with more ease.
