Commonly Asked Questions
What are the benefits of having a will?
Having a will ensures your assets are distributed exactly as you wish, providing clarity and direction for your loved ones during a difficult time. It helps minimize family disputes by clearly outlining your intentions, reducing the risk of misunderstandings or conflicts. Additionally, a will allows you to appoint a trusted guardian for your minor children, ensuring they are cared for in a way that aligns with your preferences and values. Without a will, these important decisions may be left to the courts, which could result in outcomes that do not reflect your wishes.
What's the difference between a will & a trust?
A will and a trust are both estate planning tools, but they serve different purposes. A will becomes effective after your death and outlines how you want your assets to be distributed. It also allows you to name an executor to handle your affairs and a guardian for any minor children. On the other hand, a trust can be effective during your lifetime or after your death and is used to manage your assets in a more complex manner, such as protecting them from taxes or creditors.
