Estate Planning Goals to Consider

July 1, 2011General

It can be difficult outlining your estate planning goals when you’re just getting started with the entire planning process.  It may seem overwhelming trying to make sure that all of your needs will be met.  We’ve outlined some estate planning goals that you may want to consider implementing in your plan.  If you have any questions about the information below, or if you’d like to start your estate planning, consult with a qualified estate planning attorney.

  • Decide how your assets will be distributed to your beneficiaries so that your assets are in good care and you’re able to help your loved ones
  • Make sure that your family business is protected after your death
  • Eliminate the need for probate so that your loved ones are able to receive their inheritances more quickly and your affairs are kept private
  • Protect the assets that you leave to your beneficiaries so that they are free from creditors and ex-spouses
  • Make sure that you have a proper long-term care plan in place so that you’re able to afford your aging care needs
  • Make sure that your minor children will always be cared for and protected
  • Have a plan in place so that you’re prepared for possible medical emergencies
  • Purchase enough life insurance so that your family is able to survive, even if your income is lost
  • Choose who will help to handle your affairs after your lifetime so that your affairs are handled with care
  • Protect a family member with special needs so that he or she receives the care that is needed

Working with an attorney can help to make the planning process easier.  Your attorney will be able to help you develop goals and create a plan that will meet all of your needs.  If you have any questions about the estate planning process, or if you’re ready to begin your estate planning, consult with a qualified estate planning attorney.
