Estate Planning & Family Legacy – Change the Way You Think About Making a Will

Estate Planning & Family Legacy

The idea of “doing a Will” or creating an estate plan can be daunting, especially if you don’t know where to start.

Mindset is key – thinking about estate planning in the context of family legacy and not just wealth transfer can be a more productive and rewarding place to start.

It can be helpful to think about questions like these before meeting with an estate planning lawyer:

  • What is really important to me?
  • What are the true assets of my family?
  • Will my family members get along together after my death?
  • Am I concerned that someone might make a claim against my estate?
  • Am I concerned about the capacity of my family members to manage larger amounts of money?
  • Am I concerned about the impact of bankruptcy or divorce on an inheritance?
  • Do I want to write down my preferences in a statement of wishes to guide my family members about how to transfer the wealth?
