Who Should Talk to Estate Planning Attorneys?
Anyone who does not already have an estate plan in place should talk with estate planning attorneys who can help you to make effective use of legal tools and documents to protect your own future and to provide for your loved ones.
However, there are some specific circumstances that can make it especially important to talk with an attorney for help making your estate plan. You should make certain to reach out to an estate planning attorney as soon as possible if any of the following are true:
- You have children: If you have children, you want to ensure that you have a plan to provide for your children in case something happens to you. This could mean purchasing life insurance, putting money into a trust, or taking steps to ensure that your assets can pass to your children in an appropriate way. You also need to make certain that you have named a guardian for minor children in case you can’t raise them until they are adults.
- You want to ensure your pets are cared for: If something happens to you, it is also important to ensure you have a plan in place for your pets. This could include someone to care for them and you may also want to think about providing financially for their care.
- You want to protect your autonomy in case of a medical emergency: You should have a living will or other tools in place to determine what will happen to you if you become sick or hurt and cannot communicate your preferences for medical care. This could include advanced directives that specify who will make decisions about care on your behalf and what specific types of care you do and do not wish to receive.
- You want to protect your assets: There are many possible ways that your wealth could be at risk, especially as you get older. An estate planning attorney can help you to ensure you’re able to use your wealth to leave a legacy.
- You want to control who inherits: If you do not want intestacy law to determine who gets your hard earned money or property, it is important to get legal help to make a will, trusts, or to otherwise put plans in place to pass assets onto your loved ones and causes you care about.
