PROTECT THE FUTURE OF YOUR ASSETS AND FINANCIAL SECURITY FOR YOUR FAMILY WITH PROPER ESTATE PLANNING

There are many reasons for you to take advantage of practical estate planning and asset protection planning.

For instance, did you know:

  1. A Will does not avoid probate.
  2. Probate files are public records, and anyone can have access to your records.
  3. You and your property can be placed under the control of the probate court before you die.
  4. Your child’s trust in your will may not work when needed.
  5. You may not be able to sell the jointly-owned property without approval from the probate court.
  6. You still need to protect your assets against the possibility of disability or incapacity.
  7. The probate court, not your child’s guardian, will probably control your minor child’s inheritance.
  8. Your present life insurance might be unable to help your family.
  9. The need for long-term care in your future may cause the liquidation/loss of your family assets and financial security for you, your spouse, and loved ones as a result of the Medicaid Spend-down statutes.
  10. Business activities can lead to business liabilities. The use of corporations or limited liability companies can protect you and your personal assets from such liability exposure.
