- Too often, people make estate planning mistakes simply because they don’t know what to do or how to do it. Today, we will explore the technical and real-world aspects of creating an effective estate plan.
Estate planning includes completing legal documents such as a trust, will, financial and general power of attorneys, medical directives, etc. Depending on the state you live in, additional documents may be required.
Unfortunately, many people believe they are done once they complete the legal documents, but that is not the case. As a result, their assets may not pass to their intended beneficiary or their heirs may be forced to pay for expensive probate.
The next critical step is to ensure that your assets mirror the intentions of your estate plan. This requires that you title assets correctly. Some assets, such as real estate and automobiles, pass via title. Others, such as IRAs, 401(k)s, life insurance, and annuities, pass at your death via the beneficiary designation.
Coordinating this entire process can be laborious and even confusing. For this reason, always consult with a qualified attorney and financial advisor to ensure it is completed correctly.
