Looking for a simple and affordable way to pass down assets to your beneficiaries? Are you concerned about who will care for you, or your spouse, or a beloved pet? Then you should consider estate planning.

Everyone has an estate, large or small. In Arizona, your estate plan is written if you don’t have your own customized plan. You read that correctly: If you do not have an estate plan, then the State of Arizona will ensure your assets are distributed based on the laws of this state. The state laws that govern the way your assets will be distributed if you die “intestate” are A.R.S. § 14-2102 (surviving spouse) and A.R.S. §14-2103 (heirs other than surviving spouse).

Moshier Law actively tailors personalized plans to meet every family’s distinct requirements, securing the legacy each client deserves. Verbal instructions can’t prevent conflicts among your loved ones or safeguard your assets effectively. The only guaranteed way to preserve your legacy and hard-earned assets according to your desires is to ensure your estate plan is meticulously crafted and legally sound.

The Importance of Timely Estate Planning

A common mistake is waiting to plan your estate. Many people believe that this is something to take care of between the ages of 60 and later when in fact now is the time. The world is becoming more complex and litigious. There is no way to predict when Estate Planning will be needed, and our recommendation is that you plan your estate, then revisit the plan on a regular schedule.

Do you need a trust? If you want creditor protection, or to distribute your assets on a specific schedule, you may want to consider a trust. Trusts are less expensive than you would expect, and they can be easily changed. They also help your family avoid the need for probate. A trust is a love letter to your family, telling them you cared enough to plan for their needs in advance.

What Does an Estate Planning Lawyer Do?
Estate planning should end with a well thought out PLAN for you and your family. This is not just drafting a final will and testament; your attorney should work alongside you in the planning process to ensure that your finances and property are properly taken care of. This plan should contain details about what to do about taxes, savings, property and any other remaining assets that would be passed on to your beneficiaries as well as your creditors. A skilled estate attorney should provide guidance on living trusts, power of attorney, advance healthcare directive and other legal documents. This allows for your family to worry less since you have clearly stated your wishes and removes some of the stress since a plan was already created for this difficult situation.
