AttorneyGwen I provide estate planning services for Georgia residents. My engagements begin with a Walk With Walker Planning Sessi

Estate planning can include a will-based plan or a trust-based plan, depending on your life circumstances, your budget, and your wishes.

Your pets may be some of the most important members of your family.

But they can't make arrangements for themselves if something happens to you. Estate planning can include provisions addressing who should care for your pets and how their needs should be handled.

Because “my sister will probably take them” is not exactly a formal plan. 🐶🐱

DID YOU KNOW THAT YOUR BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION OVERRIDES YOUR WILL? IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO YOU TOMORROW, WOULD YOUR FAMILY KNOW WHAT TO DO? WHO HAS LEGAL AUTHORITY TO ACT FOR YOU IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO DO SO? I will be covering these topics and more at my FREE, IN-PERSON estate planning workshop in College Park, GA. Join me as I talk about wills, trusts, powers of attorney, health care wishes, and more. I will take your questions on Wednesday, October 21st at 2pm.

It's not always an easy conversation. In fact, it can feel incredibly uncomfortable. But knowing whether your parents have a plan—and knowing where important documents can be found—can make an enormous difference during a crisis.

Instead of starting with “What am I getting?” try starting with “Do you have a plan if something happens?”

Blended families can have unique estate planning considerations. Children from previous relationships, stepchildren, a current spouse, children together, separate property, shared property—the list can get complicated quickly.

There isn't necessarily a one-size-fits-all estate plan for a blended family. Your plan should start with your actual family and your actual goals.

Autumn is the perfect time for a reset. While you're cleaning out closets and organizing your home, don't forget about the paperwork that protects your family.

Review your will or trust, beneficiary designations, powers of attorney, healthcare documents, and other important planning documents.

When your child turns 18, they're legally an adult, even if you still feel like they were asking you for snacks five minutes ago. 😂

That change can affect your ability to make certain decisions or access certain information if they're seriously ill or injured. Parents of young adults should learn about documents that may help address these situations.

It's one of the hardest estate planning questions a parent can answer.

Who would care for your children if you couldn't?

And what would you want that person's role to look like?

Parents should consider guardianship planning as part of their overall estate planning conversation. It isn't fun to think about, but it's far better to make thoughtful decisions now than leave your loved ones guessing later.

You've probably heard the word “probate,” but do you actually know what it means?

Probate is generally the legal process for handling certain assets and settling an estate after someone dies. Whether your estate needs to go through probate depends on factors such as the assets you own, how they're titled, beneficiary designations, and the laws where you live.

Estate planning isn't about avoiding one scary word; it's about understanding how your plan works.

Having conversations with your family is important. But conversations can become complicated when people are grieving, stressed, or disagree about what you would have wanted.

Your family shouldn't have to interpret hints, memories, or old conversations.

A properly created estate plan can put your wishes into a clear legal framework.
