When an adult can no longer make safe decisions and has no legal protections in place, adult guardianship may become necessary.

While guardianship can provide important protection, it is often time-consuming, costly, and may limit an individual's independence. That's why proactive planning matters.

The best protection? Putting key documents in place before a crisis occurs, such as Durable Powers of Attorney, Advance Directives, and trusts. These tools can help ensure your wishes are honored and your loved ones have the authority they need to help when it matters most.

Protect dignity. Preserve independence. Plan early.

One of the most common questions we hear is: "Do I need a trust or an estate plan?"

The answer is that they're not competing options.

An estate plan is the complete framework for protecting your family, finances, and wishes. A trust is simply one tool that may be included in that framework. Some people need a trust. Others don't.

But everyone should have a plan for who will make decisions if they're unable, who will receive their assets, and how their loved ones will be cared for. A trust is a piece of the puzzle. An estate plan is the whole picture.

Marriage changes everything, including how your assets are handled if something happens to you.

And if you own a home, this isn’t something to leave unclear.

Without a will, state law decides what happens next. That can mean delays, added costs, and decisions made by the court, not you.

A simple will can:


✔️ Ensure your spouse is protected

✔️ Clearly direct what happens to your home

✔️ Help avoid unnecessary conflict or confusion

✔️ Make a hard season a little easier for the people you love

It’s not about expecting the worst,
it’s about being wise with what you’ve been given.

Start your marriage with a plan, not a question mark.

Setting up a trust is a really smart step when it comes to protecting your family and avoiding probate.

You get to avoid probate, keep your asset records private, and lower any potential family conflicts.

But what most people don’t realize is that your trust can *only* avoid probate if it’s properly funded.

Funding your trust simply means making sure your assets are titled in the same name as your trust, so it can do what it’s designed to do.

That includes things like:

* Bank accounts
* Real estate
* Investment accounts
* And other assets you’ve acquired over the years

If those assets aren’t properly transferred to your trust, they may still have to go through probate, even if you have a trust in place.

A quick review of assets and newly acquired accounts of property ensures that everything is working the way you intended, while also ensuring that your family won’t have to deal with unnecessary complications down the road.


If you’re not sure whether your trust is fully funded or if you’d like help transferring assets into your trust, we’re happy to help you take a look and guide you through any next steps.

Doing nothing is a decision. In estate planning, it’s often the most costly one.

When there’s no plan in place, Oklahoma law decides who inherits, who manages your affairs, and how long your family may spend navigating probate. That can mean delays, confusion, and unnecessary stress during an already difficult season.

A simple plan today creates clarity and peace for the people you love tomorrow. Start with the basics: schedule a complimentary 30-minute consultation to take the first step. At Unruh & Co., we’re attorneys, advisors, and advocates committed to serving you with clarity and compassion.

Starting estate planning conversations with your family can feel uncomfortable, but avoiding them often creates confusion, stress, and conflict later.

A few simple steps can make these discussions easier:

✔️ Choose the right time (not during a crisis)

✔️ Share your goals, not just your documents

✔️ Explain who you’ve selected for key roles—and why

✔️ Invite questions and keep the conversation open

✔️ Focus on clarity as a gift to the people you love

Estate planning isn’t just paperwork. It’s a plan that helps your family move forward with confidence when they need it most.

If you’re ready to start these conversations but aren’t sure where to begin, we’re here to help guide you through it.

It’s not an easy question—but it’s an important one.

If something unexpected happened tomorrow, would your family know:


▪️ Where your important documents are?

▪️ Who should make medical decisions?

▪️ Who handles finances?

▪️ What happens to your home or mineral interests?

▪️ Your wishes for your children or dependents?

Without a clear plan, the answers often come from the court, not from you.

Estate planning gives your family direction during one of the hardest moments they’ll ever face. It replaces uncertainty with clarity and stress with confidence. ❤️

If you’re ready to make things easier for the people you love, we’re here to help.

This month we attended the Women in Business Summit hosted by the Oklahoma City Thunder, a powerful day focused on leadership, growth, and meaningful connection with women across industries.

The summit brings together executives, entrepreneurs, and community leaders for panels, breakout sessions, and networking designed to equip women with tools to elevate their businesses and impact.

At Unruh & Co., we believe collaboration and community leadership are essential to building strong futures, for families, businesses, and the next generation of women leaders.

We are grateful to be part of spaces that encourage learning, connection, and momentum across Oklahoma.

Most young parents don’t think they need an estate plan yet. But if you have children, you already do.

Without the right documents in place:


• A court may decide who raises your kids

• Someone may need legal permission to manage finances and life insurance proceeds for minor children

• Medical decisions could become complicated during an emergency

Estate planning isn’t about expecting the worst. It’s about making sure your children are protected no matter what.

The good news? A simple plan can make a lifelong difference for your family’s stability and peace of mind. 🤍

If you’re raising kids and haven’t named guardians yet, this is one of the most important steps you can take.
