It is National Estate Planning Awareness Week, so here’s another common myth about estate planning. Stay tuned for more myth busting all week! Myth: My estate will not go through probate if I have a will. Truth: Although a will can do many things, like document how you would like your assets to be distributed or name guardians for your minor children, a probate is likely. ... What does probate mean, then? If you die with just a will, no estate plan at all, or even poorly drafted plan, your estate will likely go through a time consuming court process called probate. Worse still, these records are public regarding who gets what, setting the stage for conflict and opportunists. But, this can be avoided with proper planning right now!

Many of you may have thought about estate planning, but still haven’t gotten around to it yet. If this is you, you are not alone. Only 32% of Americans have an estate plan, which means that for 68% of Americans, state laws will decide how their assets are distributed upon their death and, if they have minor children, who will care for them. But, it doesn’t have to be this way. You can take control of your family’s future and ensure that they are protected and cared for in t...he way that you want. If you have been thinking about estate planning, NOW is a great time to start the process. What better time than National Estate Planning Awareness Week to push it to the top of your to-do list? Doing so will protect your loved ones and your legacy, and will give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing that you planned for the future.
