Every adult should have a will. Surprisingly, many people
don't have an estate plan, a will or powers of attorney.
Why do so many people fail to plan for what is an inevitable part
of life?
Even though estate planning involves conversations about death
and incapacity, estate planning doesn't have to be
morbid. On the contrary, estate planning can be
life-affirming by forcing you to take a closer look at the people
you most care about in your life and to ensure you deal with your
estate to benefit them.
Estate planning also makes life a lot easier for our loved ones
when we die. The little time it takes to meet with a lawyer
to plan your estate can save your spouse, children, and other
beneficiaries time, effort, money and, possibly litigation.
