Tucson Estate Planning Attorney

There are few Tucsonans that know exactly when they will need the assistance of a Tucson estate planning attorney. Anyone, however, who has lost a loved family member who did not use an estate planner would tell you that the time to seek the services of an estate planning legal firm like Freeman & St. Clair is right now. Here are some advantages that a small business law firm can provide you by getting your estate plans in order:

Avoid Probate - Without your financial plan in place, your entire estate could be tied up in probate, subjecting it to fees and public knowledge.

Financial Security - The loved ones you leave behind will be grateful you chose to plan your estate according to your wishes, and not those of the court. It may provide them with the financial stability they need should you be taken out of the picture.

Keep Your Business in the Family - If you are a business owner, and die with no estate plan, the business is at risk. You can designate who is to take over your company upon your death to avoid the wrong person getting into the power position.

Dying without a will - If you should die Intestate (without a will) you will have no say as to whom your assets are assigned upon your death. You should have that all decided now, and make it known to your estate planner.

Minor Children - Any minor children of someone who dies without planning their estate are subjected to the courts' decision of who is to take custody of them.

Loss of Capacity - Should you become incompetent, unable to manage your own affairs, you will have already appointed the person in whom you confide to make the important decisions concerning your life. Otherwise, the state would assign someone to the task.

You go through life, working hard to earn and save money. It would be a crying shame if you became incapacitated, or if you died, only to have your entire estate divided up by the courts, rather than having your assets go to where and to whom you desire. Not having your affairs in order could also lead to extra administration fees and unnecessary taxes. Worst of all, it could lead to contention amongst your family members regarding the division of the assets.
