Albuquerque Estate Planning Attorney
Everyone, regardless of net worth, needs a detailed Estate Plan
An estate consists of everything you own: a car, home, checking and savings accounts, investments, life insurance, personal possessions. Estate planning allows you to control your property while you are alive and well. It’s the opportunity to plan for yourself and your loved ones in the event of a disability, or to give what you have to your family, when it’s time, the way you planned it.
The Law Offices of Erika E. Anderson will develop a relationship with you to provide the best assistance to your family in the event of disability or death. We help create estate plans that support your vision so you can protect your family and provide for your loved ones.
Estate planning includes understanding the relationship between beneficiary designations, how you own your assets, and the legal documents that support an estate plan. It also includes an appropriate selection and appointment of personal representatives, trustees, guardians for minors, agents, and caregivers for pets.
What is the Estate Planning Process?
An estate can be cared for according to your goals, leaving your family free of uncertainty and the ability to focus on healing when properly equipped with testamentary documents. Though it is a difficult conversation to have with your loved ones, it is a significant one. The right lawyer should provide a comforting environment in which to discuss a will and your various trust options. The Law Offices of Erika E. Anderson provides compassionate, knowledgeable legal support to those who are ready to take this step.
A comprehensive estate plan will include the following:
- A Last Will and Testament
- A Durable Financial Power of Attorney
- A Durable Health Care Power of Attorney
- Personal Property Designation
- Organ Donation Declaration
- Burial and Funeral Directive
When Should I Start Estate Planning?
The right time to plan your estate is now. No one wants to or likes to think about their own mortality and the chance of being unable to make decisions for yourself is an uneasy thought. Many families are caught off-guard or unprepared when a death occurs. Don’t let that be you. You can put something in place now and change it later. The best benefit is peace of mind. Knowing you have a plan in place is one of the most considerate things you can do for your family. Contact the Law Offices of Erika E. Anderson to get started with your estate planning lawyer in Albuquerque.
