5@55: 5 Estate Planning Documents For Everyone Over 55

It’s never too early or too late to begin your estate plan. You need an estate plan for many reasons, but this is especially true as you acquire more assets. It may seem overwhelming to get started, so we are offering you this free eBook: 5@55: 5 Estate Planning Documents for Everyone Over 55. In it, we tell you what you need before you meet with an estate planning attorney. Sometimes, you just need to know how to begin – and this can be your first step.

What Is Included In An Estate Plan?

An estate plan includes more than a will or trust; it also includes a healthcare directive, Power of Attorney, and more. Plus, you want your estate plan to work with your current plans, such as your 401(k) and life insurance. This is why you want to work with an experienced estate planning attorney. We can go over everything to ensure it is compatible.

Without an estate plan, you have no control over how your assets will be distributed when you’re gone or who will care for your minor children. Your loved ones may be forced to endure a long and expensive probate process if you do not have a will or trust in place when you die. A proper estate plan is essential. You don’t want to leave your loved ones unprotected after you’re gone.
