Though it might not be easy to talk about mortality and the things that come with it, creating an estate plan is one of the most important things anyone can do. It is the absolute best thing to ensure your family and loved ones are taken care of in case you are incapacitated or if you pass away. Through estate planning, you can designate health and financial decisions that will be followed, you can decide who takes guardianship over your children, and much more if you pass away or become incapacitated. While there is no limit to the benefits of preparing an estate plan, there is one perk not often discussed: the peace of mind that estate planning brings. For those of you who do not have a will or estate plan in place, take a moment and think about what would happen to your finances and children if you were to be involved in a fatal accident. How would your assets be split up? Who would become the guardian of your children? What happens if you become incapacitated? Would you be kept on life-support? Peace of Mind Is Priceless What’s New With Me and My Own?
By creating an estate plan, you are erasing any of the doubt that these questions present. You will make decisions regarding what happens with your assets and finances. You can decide who takes over guardianship of your children and what steps your family should take if you become incapacitated. You will get the peace of mind that your wishes will be carried out and your loved ones will be taken care of. At Littlejohn Law, it’s our goal to help as many people as possible.
