What Is A Great Estate Plan?
A great estate plan is one that you understand, can explain the benefits of to your beneficiaries, that you know will work to protect not only your beneficiaries, but also you during your life in the event that the unexpected happens. It should contemplate where you are today, where you could be tomorrow and where each of your beneficiaries are most likely to be. It should not be a static document, but capable of changing with you and your desires. It should clearly state who is in charge, when they are in charge and what they are in charge of and it should involve the courts as little as possible. The best estate plan is one that works for you and that you helped design, collaboratively, with an attorney who can and will enforce it.
