Why Have an Estate Plan?
Be Prepared
Each year, 1 in 5 people visit the emergency room, and 1 in 20 people experience the death of a loved one.
Make Your Own Decisions
On average, 3-8% of your net worth will be lost to courts and lawyer fees.
Take Care of Your Loved Ones
Having an estate plan in place eliminates uncertainty for your loved ones and protects your wishes for things like who cares for your children, who inherits your assets, and even what your own healthcare looks like if incapacitated.
