Did you know? The shortest will ever admitted to probate in English law was admitted in 1906 and simply read, "All for mother." Surprisingly, "mother" referred to the testator's wife, not his mother. 🤯 The testator was known to call his wife "mother," and after evidence of such was presented, the court ruled that his wife was entitled to the estate. 🧑‍⚖️

Wills must be properly executed and witnessed, and the testator should not be mentally incapacitated or under duress. Ambiguities and complications are a huge risk with DIY wills. Don't leave your wishes up to the interpretation of a probate court judge. Ensure your estate plan is comprehensive and leaves no room for ambiguity.

If you have a revocable living trust, make sure all new assets you acquire are included in it or tied to it in some way. This ensures your estate plan remains effective. 🌟

Think of your trust as a big empty box. 📦 Anything inside the box avoids probate—this is called trust funding. 💰 🏡 ➡️ 📜 But anything left out could be an expensive and time-consuming mistake. 💸 🚫
While not every new asset should be included in your trust for tax reasons, each asset should be tied to your trust in some way, depending on the type of asset.

If you need help establishing a trust or determining what assets should go in or be tied to it, we can help. Schedule an initial consultation with us today, and let's make sure your box isn't empty and works as intended when your family needs it most. 🤝

While a Power of Attorney is a crucial component of a comprehensive estate plan, it is insufficient to rely on this single document for your incapacity planning. 🙅 If you are making decisions that are not in your best interest, naming an agent in a Power of Attorney will not take away your legal right to do so. This is why a broader, more comprehensive plan is a better solution—a Revocable Living Trust. 📜 ✨ If the Power of Attorney you executed did not give your agent the power to create a trust on your behalf, a full guardianship proceeding (sometimes called a conservatorship) will be needed in order for you to be declared incompetent. 🏛 🧑‍⚖️

By creating a Revocable Living Trust and naming a trustee while you are still of sound mind, this can be avoided. A Living Trust benefits the settlor (the person establishing the trust) during their lifetime and designates beneficiaries for after they're gone. It also names a trustee to manage the trust should the settlor become incapacitated. 💯
