FAQs

Do I need a will if I don’t have many assets?
Yes. A will ensures your wishes are honored and avoids confusion among loved ones.

What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect after death and goes through probate; a trust can take effect during your lifetime and often avoids probate.

How often should I update my estate plan?
Any time there’s a major life change—like marriage, divorce, or having children—we recommend a review.
