ESTATE LAW
Estate planning allows you to provide for your family by creating a will, establishing a power of attorney or living will, making funeral arrangements in advance, and more. If you’re ready to begin the estate planning process, you need the help of an attorney with the knowledge to protect the interests of you and your loved ones. That’s where Joy P. Robinson, PC comes in.
PREPARING AN ESTATE PLAN
Estate planning is the process of creating a plan for how your assets should be distributed. Your estate includes everything you own, from large items such as your home, to your checking account, to life insurance policies, to your personal property, such as your clothes and jewelry. While the heart of estate planning involves the distribution of your estate, you can also use your Maryland estate plan to make other important end-of-life decisions.
There are many different aspects of your planning that will influence your decisions, and each person’s estate plan is unique. This is why you need to identify a Maryland estate planning attorney who understands your unique needs and works hard to set up strategies and plans that are aligned with these needs. Do not hesitate to get help from a Maryland estate planning attorney now, as putting together these goals and documents now can make a difficult time somewhat easier for your loved ones. While these are never easy questions to answer, the process can be made much smoother with the intervention of a Upper Marlboro estate planning attorney.
Not planning ahead can put your loved ones in a very difficult situation. Your family members might not agree about your end-of-life decisions or the court could handle your estate and distribute your property in a manner that is not in line with your wishes. Your estate plan is your chance to articulate your desires and to protect your beneficiaries. Various tactics may be employed to make it easier and less tax-invasive for your beneficiaries to receive your assets. Having an estate planning attorney in Maryland who hears your concerns and structures an estate plan with that in mind can be very beneficial.
Putting together your estate plan now gives you peace of mind and comfort in knowing that you have taken the necessary steps to protect yourself and your family members. Plan to return to these materials at least once a year or every time you have a major life event (like the birth of a child, a marriage, or a divorce) so that your plan always matches up to your needs.
