A revocable living trust is among the cornerstone recommendations I offer to clients seeking to protect and preserve their assets and streamline their estate planning process. Beyond asset protection, establishing a revocable living trust can also facilitate efficient asset management during incapacity, maintain privacy by avoiding public probate proceedings, and expedite asset distribution to beneficiaries upon the grantor's passing.

Many people delay the creation of their estate plan simply because they assume they have more time. “I’m young. I have time!” or maybe “I don’t even have enough money for an estate plan. I will do it once I’m making more money!” All of these assumptions hinge on more time or more money and for many people, these things never come. The most important thing is protecting you and your family NOW in your current season!

Give me a call and let’s get to work on creating the perfect plan for NOW!

Lawyers can't be serious all the time! It's always fun to connect with colleagues outside the office. We enjoyed hearing from Supreme Court Justice Roger Page at Law Day last month.

I was honored to receive the 2024 Access to Justice Award from West TN Legal Services this year at Law Day.

Parents, listen up! Ensure your 18-year-old college-bound kid has a Power of Attorney before they fly the coop. This allows you to make crucial decisions regarding their health and finances if they become incapacitated while away at school. This document grants you access to medical records and empowers you to handle important matters on their behalf in case of illness or injury.

When it comes to protecting the people we care about the most, there is one super EASY way to cover our bases: Revocable Living Trust. Let’s dive into the reasons this matters for you…⬇️

💥 Avoiding Probate: Assets placed in a revocable living trust can bypass the probate process, saving time and money for your heirs. Probate can be costly and time-consuming, and a trust allows for a smoother transfer of assets to beneficiaries after your passing.

💥 Privacy: Unlike a will, which becomes a public document upon probate, a revocable living trust allows for the distribution of assets to remain private. This confidentiality can be preferable for those who prefer to keep their financial affairs confidential.

💥 Incapacity Planning: A revocable living trust allows for the management of assets in the event of your incapacity. If you become unable to manage your affairs due to illness or disability, the successor trustee named in the trust document can step in and manage the trust assets on your behalf.

💥 Control Over Distribution: With a trust, you can specify how and when your assets will be distributed to your beneficiaries. This can be especially useful if you have minor children, beneficiaries with special needs, or wish to stagger distributions over time.

💥 Flexibility and Control: Since a revocable living trust can be modified or revoked during your lifetime, it provides flexibility in adapting to changes in your circumstances or wishes. You retain control over your assets while alive and can make changes as needed.

➡️ Overall, a revocable living trust can provide peace of mind, privacy, and flexibility in managing your assets and distributing them to your loved ones according to your wishes. However, it's essential to consult with a qualified estate planning attorney to determine if a trust is the right option for your individual circumstances.

Estate Planning is important ALL YEAR! Trust me, it’s true. HOWEVER, the spring and summer months are an important time to review or create estate plans for several reasons:

⛱️ Vacation and Travel: Traveling ramps up for vacations or other activities. Having an estate plan in place ensures that your affairs are in order in case of any unexpected events while away from home.

⛰️ Outdoor Activities and Risks: Warmer weather often brings outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, or water sports. I love all of these things! However, with increased outdoor activities comes an increased risk of accidents or injuries.

👪 Family Gatherings: Spring and summer often bring family gatherings such as weddings, reunions, family vacations, holidays, or barbecues. These events can serve as opportunities to discuss and update your estate plan with family members, ensuring that everyone is aware of your wishes and responsibilities.

🏡 Home Maintenance: Warmer weather might prompt homeowners to engage in home improvement projects or property maintenance. This can include reviewing property ownership, updating beneficiaries, or making provisions for the management of real estate in your estate plan.

🧑‍⚕️Health Considerations: For individuals with health concerns exacerbated by heat or allergies, warmer months may highlight the importance of having advanced healthcare directives or medical powers of attorney in place. Like your mom always said, you can never be too careful.

💸 Tax Considerations: Depending on your jurisdiction, estate tax laws may change at the beginning of the fiscal year, which often coincides with the beginning of the warmer months. Reviewing your estate plan during this time can help ensure that it remains aligned with current tax regulations.

Overall, the warmer months serve as a reminder to review and update your estate plan to ensure that it reflects your current wishes, circumstances, and any changes in the law.

I understand that when it comes to planning for the future, you want it done the RIGHT WAY. To find an elder law attorney who is a good fit, you’ll want to ask some key questions. Consider each of the following, tailoring them to pertain to your greatest concerns:

❓❓11 Questions to ask an Elder Law Attorney❓❓

How long have you practiced elder law and estate planning, and how much do you charge?

What experience do you have drafting estate plans and navigating estate taxes?

Do my circumstances warrant a revocable living trust?

How long will it take to execute my estate plan?

Will you provide documentation to me for review before creating necessary legal documents?

Will other employees in your law office be able to help me with issues in your absence?

Will my powers of attorney have dementia-specific provisions?

Will my documents “ladder” successors or make use of co-agents?

Does my state permit a Lady Bird Deed to transfer real estate at my death outside probate, and do I need one?

How can I keep my critical health care documents portable?

What are my best options in planning for long-term care?
