Estate planning is more than drafting a will. It creates a roadmap for asset management, healthcare decisions, and successor planning.
The process typically includes gathering assets, selecting guardians and trustees, and updating documents as life changes.
Estate planning involves arranging property, family care, and legal documents to carry out your wishes after death or in case of incapacity.
Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and advance healthcare directives are core tools used to control transfer of assets and health decisions.
This glossary explains common terms used in estate planning to help you understand options and steps.
A legal document that directs how your assets should be distributed after your death and may appoint guardians for minor children.
A fiduciary arrangement that holds and manages property for the benefit of another person, often used to avoid probate or provide for loved ones.
A document that designates someone to act on your behalf for financial or legal matters during incapacity.
A document that communicates your medical preferences and appoints a decision maker for health care if you cannot speak for yourself.
Estate planning tools vary in flexibility, cost, and control. Understanding options helps you choose a plan that aligns with your goals.
For individuals with straightforward assets and few dependents, a simple will or basic trust may meet goals.
