Many people think they can wait until they are much older before they can make an estate plan ‑ the odds of anything happening to them are so low, so they make estate planning a low priority. Others think that they don’t have enough assets to warrant an estate plan. The fact is that some people will be faced with an unexpected illness or a tragic accident. Having a plan in place will ensure transfer of assets to your loved ones. No matter the extent of your assets, you doubtless want to choose who will ultimately benefit from them.
