Estate planning will serve as a guide to your surviving loved ones regarding of your wishes for distributing your Estate.

Furthermore, there are some out there who would exploit grief or for their own personal gain.

It’s important to have a plan in place, so that your family is cared for in your absence.

Do you know what happens to the assets of an estate, when the owner of the property has passed? Could there be unknown investments or debts in their name? What happens to their debts and liabilities, (or business holdings) following their passing? Will there be enough left for their surviving family members to be cared for?

We know that it’s difficult to discuss financial issues while you are grieving, but questions like these and others do often arise following the passing of a loved one. Probate is the legal process for reviewing the assets and liabilities of a deceased person and to possibly determine heirs. By addressing these concerns, the Court determines clear guidelines on how to settle debts and distribute assets.
