Estate Planning

Crafting a secure future. Estate planning stands as a vital pillar for seamless asset transfer and the welfare of your loved ones during incapacity and when you’re no longer here. It masterfully orchestrates asset distribution, safeguards minor children, and maps critical medical and financial decisions for potential incapacitation. This meticulous planning shields assets from excess taxes, probate entanglements, and family disputes, thereby lightening tax loads and ensuring rightful legacies. It thoughtfully appoints guardians for minor children, instilling assurance for their tomorrows should unforeseen circumstances arise. Through living wills and power of attorney, it tactically averts conflicts by guiding choices for vulnerable family members. In essence, estate planning empowers families, securing assets, children’s prospects, and last wishes during vulnerability or demise – nurturing financial well-being and harmony. Embark on this crucial journey with us.

Trusts

Crafting a trust is essential to ensure your intentions guide asset distribution after your passing. Without one, state laws dictate division, potentially clashing with your wishes and causing conflict between loved ones. Trusts provide substantial estate planning benefits: privacy, seamless distribution, and controlled management. In complex family scenarios like blended families or minor children, they determine inheritance timing, shield assets from creditors and other messy life situations, and ensure ongoing financial stability.
Furthermore, trusts minimize estate taxes, increasing beneficiary inheritances. They offer adaptable plans without frequent amendments, distinct from wills.
Ultimately, trusts provide asset protection for loved ones, privacy, tax advantages, and personalized financial security, empowering tailored legacies. This versatile tool ensures clarity and security for loved ones. A Trust is the only way to avoid Probate.

Wills

Wills are not the best tool to ensure privacy or protection. There is a common misperception that Wills won’t get probated. Most people think that their estate is protected with a Will, but that is not true. A Will can help streamline the probate process and lets you assign beneficiaries, allocate assets, and name an executor for estate management. BUT a will is only guidance for a judge. Wills can also be easily contested, resulting in family conflict and causes probate to be more expensive and time consuming.

One of my resolutions this year was to consolidate all our assets into a trust, but I wasn’t sure how to get that done. I was wary of hiring an attorney because of how expensive they can be, but I also wanted it done correctly. A friend suggested I talk to Shannon Borden. I texted Shannon, and she replied almost immediately. She was incredibly accommodating with a couple of rescheduling requests I made and even came to my workplace to make the meeting convenient for me. During our meeting, she took the time to answer all my questions, explain everything in simple terms, and presented several straightforward and affordable package plans for me to consider. Overall, the process was easy, affordable, professional, and well worth the time and effort. Shannon was wonderful to work with, and I highly recommend her to anyone needing estate planning.
