Without a legal planned estate in place when you pass away, your assets can fall into Intestacy. Intestacy laws allow the state to act as an administrator, enforcing which parties are eligible to inherit a deceased individual’s assets, depending on which descendants are living. This can lead to unexpected and unwanted distribution of the assets you have worked for.
To properly prepare for estate planning, Baratta Russell & Baratta recommends the completion of three primary documents to get started: a Last Will and Testament, a Durable Financial Power of Attorney and an Advance Directive for Healthcare.
