Unfortunately, most people find out too late. If you do not have a
Probate-Proof Plan, the State will dictate what happens to you, your
belongings, and all your hard-earned assets in a very open, public court.
The government’s probate plan is:
Time consuming -- 6-24 months
Inconvenient -- often interferes with work and family
Very expensive -- up to 10% of your estate, not including taxes
Loss of privacy
Open to identity theft even after death
Extremely stressful for your whole family.
Most people know they need something, but what kind of a plan?
A Last Will and Testament?
A Revocable Living Trust?
A Living Will and Advanced Directive?
All of these? Something else?
