Estate Planning & Probate Tips
Estate planning documents should be kept in a safe place, together with a list of your or your loved one’s assets, and a list of professionals (names, addresses, and telephone numbers) with whom your legal representatives may consult. The best drafted estate plan will become useless if your legal representatives cannot locate your assets.
The more planning you do for your family before death, the less chaos your family will experience after your death.
