Norristown Pa Wills – Intro

The best gift you can give your loved ones is to have your Pa Estate Planning complete.

Unfortunately, to a great extent, misinformation about critical terms such as Pa Inheritance Tax, Federal Estate tax, Pa Probate, avoiding probate, simple will, and Pa Living Trust, tends to lead to misunderstandings of estate planning.

These misunderstandings, in turn, tend to lead to mistakes in estate planning. These mistakes, again, in turn, tend to lead to unintended results after one’s death.

In an effort to eliminate such misinformation, misunderstandings, and mistakes, this article will hopefully serve as a review – in very simple terms – of the basic, core issues of estate planning and its basic documents

Norristown Pa Wills – WPa Estate Planning

An Attorney who specializes in Pa Estate Planning can help you create a complete plan (including Pa Last Wills, Pa Powers of Attorney, and Pa Living Wills, etc.) to protect your spouse and children if you become unable to manage your financial affairs.

Pa Estate Planning allows you to make decisions now so your wishes can be carried out if you die or become incapacitated.

Norristown Pa Wills – Pa Powers of Attorney

When you execute a legal document called a power of attorney, you are authorizing another individual to make certain decisions on your behalf.

The person who signs the document is called the principal and the person who is authorized to make decisions is known as the agent or attorney-in-fact.

Norristown Pa Wills – Pa Living Wills

Living wills are also referred to as an advance directive or a health care directive. It is a legal document that communicates your desire in the treatment of serious medical problems in the event that you are unable to speak for yourself. They do not go into effect unless you are incapacitated and unable to express yourself.

Having a living will can relieve your close relatives from the burden of having to make the decision about whether to remove you from life support.

Norristown Pa Wills – Pa Trusts

Trusts are legal documents that allow you to control how your assets will be allocated or managed. You are considered the grantor and the person that manages and distributes assets in the trust is known as the trustee. Individuals who receive money or other assets are the beneficiaries.

Property placed in a trust, unlike wills, is not subject to probate. You can also create a revocable trust which can be canceled or revoked at any time while you are alive. Trusts can be set up for a child’s education or to reduce estate taxes.

Norristown Pa Wills – Pa Last Wills

A West Chester Pa Will is an important document to execute in order to avoid disputes about how your assets will be divided when you die. The executor who administers the distribution of assets from your estate will allocate your possessions as you specified. You should periodically review your Will to make sure it is still relevant and accurate. Life changing events, such as the birth of a child or a marriage, may require amendments to the original document.
