Proper estate planning through tools like wills, trusts, and life insurance can help protect a family's assets and save them money during their most vulnerable time. While estate planning can seem complicated, an experienced attorney can help craft customized solutions like wills and powers of attorney to meet a client's specific needs and save their heirs time and money. Creating a trust allows grantors more control over how and when heirs receive assets, which is especially important if they are too young to be responsible for the inheritance.
