Estates / Probate
Probate is the lengthy process of proving if a Will is valid and clearing an estate of any debt. All of this takes place in court reguardless if there is a valid Will or no Will at all.
By properly planning your estate with a financial professional and an estate planning attorney, you can increase your chances of decreasing probate costs and avoiding costly mistakes. While not many people like to discuss their own mortality, the thought of family, friends, or charity losing large percentages of their inheritance and your estate to costs, fees, and taxes, should be enough for anyone to start planning.
