All parents want to make sure that their children are safe and provided for in the event that something were to happen to them. Estate planning is not just for the ultra-wealthy, which is why Circle of Life Legal focuses on working with families with minor children. Many new business owners don't realize how confusing the maze of legal decisions can be when creating a business structure for the first time.
These may seem like big scary documents, but what they can do is truly amazing. As mysterious as they are, the cost and time it takes to put into place a properly drafted and funded trust can avoid the need for court when your time is up. The right plan will save your family thousands of dollars and months of frustration dealing with court when they should be celebrating your life, not cursing the court system.
The last will and testament ("will") is one of the most essential building blocks for any property plan. It should define and explain how you want your property to be taken care of or divided. However, it depends on what kind of plan you will implement. Are you confused between a will- based plan or a trust-based plan?
Heard of probate? It is a highly supervised court process for distributing assets of a person who has died. Property is given to the rightful beneficiaries following the instructions of the will. If there is no will, your assets go to your legal heirs according to the state laws.
The entire probate process starts after the death of the owner and the designated individuals in the legal will must start administering the estate as per the will along with terms.They need to follow critical steps in properly administering the estate. They must keep records of your assets, maintain full financial reports, receive benefits, pay bills, provide tax returns, just to name a few.

I highly recommend Marty for your estate planning needs. Marty walked my husband and I through the process, explained it in depth but made it simple to understand and help us answer any question as we went through the process. Marty is very knowledgeable, very accessible and easy to work with. We are very happy with the services received and feel at ease knowing that we were taken care off.

I wanted to share with anyone who is seeking help with your Estate or Last Will , and Testament or Trust. Or maybe some advice about inheritance or family matters in any of these case.
