Secure Your Legacy: The Importance of Having a Last Will and Testament

“I like to be proactive, I am not a victim. If I have the power to control things and get ahead of them, I like to do that. And once I have gotten those things done then I have peace of mind. So that’s something estate planning and will can bring you.” Greg McIntyre

Hey there, my friends!

Are you thinking about your future and what will happen to your assets when you’re gone? If so, you’re in the right place. Today’s episode is all about the benefits of having a last will and testament.

Our guest, elder law attorney Greg McIntyre, explains that wills are a straightforward way to pass assets and appoint an executor to control the passage of assets under the watchful eye of the court in the probate process. But that’s not all! Wills can also be used to direct assets to loved ones, charities, or a combination of both.

McIntyre also discusses how wills can contain testamentary trusts, which are trusts built into a will that hold assets to give out over time. And if you’re wondering whether a will is necessary if a trust is already in place, McIntyre has an answer for you. He explains that a will can act as a “cleanup crew” to ensure all assets are properly transferred to the trust.

If you’re interested in discussing your estate planning needs, McIntyre offers a free consultation. It’s never too early to start planning for the future, and McIntyre Elder Law is here to help.
