Grissom’s Quick Tips: Using a Memorandum
• Personal Property Only – Use a memorandum for tangible personal property such as jewelry, artwork, furniture, and family heirlooms.
• Be Specific – Clearly describe each item so there is no confusion about which property you mean.
• Avoid Financial Assets – Bank accounts, investments, and other financial assets generally should not be designated through a memorandum.
• Be Careful With Titled Property – Real estate and vehicles may require separate legal documents or additional steps to transfer ownership.
• Keep It With Your Estate Plan – Make sure your memorandum is properly prepared and works with the terms of your Will and estate plan.

Do You Really Need a Trust in Georgia or Is a Will Enough?
A will and a trust both play important roles in estate planning, but they serve different purposes. A will generally goes through probate, while assets placed in a trust may pass according to its terms without probate and provide additional privacy. The right choice depends on your assets, family circumstances, long term goals, and what you want your estate plan to accomplish. Read more: www.grissomlawfirm.com/need-trust-will-enough

What Assets Can I Designate in a Memorandum?
A memorandum is typically used to designate tangible personal property, meaning physical items rather than financial assets or real property. This may include jewelry, watches, family heirlooms, artwork, antiques, collectibles, coins, stamps, sports memorabilia, musical instruments, furniture, decorative items, photo albums, books, clothing, and personal accessories.

Leave a Legacy That Gives Back
Your estate plan can do more than provide for the people you love. A charitable trust may allow you to support organizations and causes that matter to you while creating a lasting legacy that reflects your values.

The right charitable planning strategy depends on your goals, assets, and how you want your gift to benefit others.

Make generosity part of your legacy.

Should Minor Children Receive Their Inheritance at 18?
Whether a child should receive an inheritance at 18 depends on the individual, not simply their age. Legal adulthood does not always mean a young adult has the financial experience or judgment to manage a significant inheritance. Estate planning offers flexibility to determine how and when assets are distributed based on your child’s maturity, needs, and circumstances.

What will your family remember about the way you prepared for their future?
Estate planning is more than deciding who receives your assets. It is an opportunity to leave clear instructions, reduce uncertainty, and make difficult decisions easier for the people you love.

This Friday, take a moment to reflect: If your family had to rely on your estate plan today, would it truly reflect your wishes? Planning today can provide clarity tomorrow.

➡️ Myth: If my trust owns my home, I automatically lose my homestead property tax benefits.
➡️ Fact: Not necessarily. In many situations, transferring your home into a properly drafted revocable living trust does not eliminate your homestead exemption. However, you must re-apply for your homestead exemption. Transferring the property into the wrong type of trust or entity can unintentionally affect eligibility. The way the trust is written and state law both matter, making legal guidance important before transferring real estate.

Estate Planning for a Child with Special Needs
Estate planning for a child with special needs is about providing long term financial security, protecting important government benefits, and ensuring continued care and support. An outright inheritance or well intended gifts from relatives may create unintended consequences if they are not coordinated with the overall estate plan. Thoughtful planning can address finances, decision making, housing, care preferences, and other factors that affect your child’s future.
