When Is the Best Time to Establish a Simple Will or Trust?
Typically, the last thing people want to think about is establishing a simple will or trust. Parents with young children are often busy and avoid making an estate plan a top priority. The years can quickly pass by, leaving families with nothing in writing identifying how they would like their estate handled, their property distributed and even who they would like named guardian of their children based on an unexpected circumstance.
I am committed to helping clients throughout the greater Kansas City area plan ahead through establishing simple wills and trusts. I offer cost-effective planning solutions, so clients can establish a will or trust without setting substantial funds aside to make that happen.
Understandably, clients often wonder when is the best time to begin planning for the future. As a rule of thumb, I recommend for parents to consider establishing a simple will or trust the first time they plan time away without their children. This is an ideal opportunity for parents to list in writing a guardian for their children, if anything were to happen to them.
Establishing a will or trust early on can provide families with the peace of mind knowing that important details are covered. Ultimately, a simple estate plan can help families avoid potential disputes with a clear understanding of how the transfer of property and other important details of an estate plan should be handled.
