ESTATE PLANNING

Who Needs A Will or A Trust?

 At The Sauls Law Firm we believe everyone needs a will. Even us with basic assets such as a small home, a car, a boat, and a normal size 401K plan. Some say I really don’t need a will because all my assets will go right to my children or family members. This way of thinking may indeed lead to disharmony in your family not to mention the government may claim a portion of your assets. Wills and trusts are not just for the very fortunate people in our society. If you do not have a will or trust, your family risks losing control of all of your assets, as the property will automatically be forced into probate where the court will pick an administrator to oversee the distribution of property as determined by state law. This administrator can ask the court to order the sale of the assets you have worked so hard to obtain.

Avoid Probate

To avoid the above mentioned problems, all you need is a well drafted will that distributes 100% of your assets to the family members you want those assets to go to. Moreover, the best way to avoid probate court altogether is establish a trust account to pass on your assets to the next generation.
