The most straightforward explanation of Estate Planning is that it is the process of clearly stating how you want your assets, large or small, to be handled after you pass away or if you become incapacitated during your lifetime. At FULMER | MAY | STUCKEY, we take the time to determine what exactly you and your family would like to do and then provide advice based on years of experience as to how best to go about putting your plan in place. Often, understandably, people do not know where to start. Generally speaking, a good estate plan consists of a Will, a Trust if needed, a Power of Attorney, an Advanced Healthcare Directive (Living Will) with a named Healthcare Representative, and a Beneficiary Designation.
