What is Estate Planning?

Estate planning is the process of arranging for the management and disposal of an individual's estate during their life and after death. It involves creating a plan to ensure that an individual's assets are distributed according to their wishes, while minimizing taxes, legal fees, and court costs. Estate planning can include various legal documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. It's not just for the wealthy; anyone with assets, dependents, or specific wishes for their healthcare should consider estate planning.
