Special Needs Planning can be tricky, costly and time consuming if you do not know where to start and if you do not have the right advisors on your side.

Great article that summarizes the basics of what estate planning entails and why you should always consult with an attorney when drafting a Will.

People don't realize how important this may be. Having a Will cuts down on lengthy estate administration, ensures your assets are directed where you want them to go, and ensures those who you want in charge are appointed to those fiduciary positions. Even more so, if you have small children, or those with special needs, drawing up the right kind of Will ensures that those who receive bequests from your Will are not at risk of losing their government benefits, or that the right person is the guardian of your children.
