FAQs
Do I need an estate plan if I don’t have significant assets?
Yes. Estate Planning is about more than wealth—it ensures your wishes are followed and your loved ones are cared for.
What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
A will directs how assets are distributed after death, while a trust can manage assets during your lifetime and help avoid probate.
Are trusts only for individuals with significant assets?
No. We do not subscribe to the belief that your net worth determines whether a trust would be a suitable estate plan for you. Instead, we may recommend a trust based on whether the individual is a homeowner or a business owner, whether the individual owns real property outside of the State of Georgia, whether the individual has minor children, and whether there are other factors suggesting the individual has a complex estate.
How often should I update my estate plan?
We recommend reviewing your plan every 1-2 years or sooner, particularly after major life events such as marriage, divorce, death of a beneficiary, acquiring a new business, purchasing real estate, or a significant change in your net worth.
