Estate Planning: Common Questions

Do I need a will or a trust?

It depends on your assets, family situation, and state. Wills are simpler; trusts can avoid probate and provide more control. An estate planning attorney can recommend the right structure for your goals.

What happens if I die without a will?

Your state's intestacy laws decide who inherits, which may not match your wishes, and a court supervises the process. A basic estate plan avoids that uncertainty.

How often should I update my estate plan?

Review it after major life events such as marriage, divorce, a new child, a significant change in assets, or a move to another state, and otherwise every three to five years.
