Estate Planning Legal Questions and Answers

Trust
Massachusetts
How can I set up a trust to protect my assets?
I am a business owner and have accumulated significant assets over the years. With the increasing risks and uncertainties in the business world, I am concerned about protecting my assets from potential lawsuits, creditors, and other unforeseen circumstances. I have heard that setting up a trust can provide a level of asset protection, but I am unsure about the process and the different types of trusts available. I would like to consult with a lawyer to understand how I can establish a trust that safeguards my assets while still allowing me to have control and access to them.
Joseph M.
There are numerous forms of Trust that are available depending on the specific assets and your unique goals. Generally speaking, the two main types of trusts are Revocable and Irrevocable. WIth a Revocable Trust, just like it sounds, as trustee you can remove the assets at some point if you so chose, but if you are to pass away or become incapacitated at some point, it reverts to being Irrevocable. An Irrevocable Trust is one in which the grantor transfers all ownership interests to the Trust itself and this act is irreversible. As I am sure you guessed, there are a myriad of ways that your goals can be achieved and I would be happy to provide a free consultation to discuss your situation and possible solutions.

Last Will and Testament
Georgia
I had an Alabama elder care lawyer create my POA, will, etc. Now I am living permanently in Ga. Is my paperwork still good or do I need to get it reviewed and updated in Ga.
widowed and living alone
Allen L.
The short answer is: your Alabama documents are most likely still legally valid in Georgia, but a Georgia attorney review is strongly recommended — especially given your situation living alone and widowed. Here is the breakdown: Will Georgia recognizes a will validly executed in another state as long as it was properly signed and witnessed under that state's law at the time it was made. Alabama and Georgia both require two witnesses, so your will should be fine. That said, if your Alabama will names your spouse or references Alabama-specific assets, accounts, or property that has since changed, it absolutely needs updating for that reason alone. Power of Attorney Georgia adopted the Uniform Power of Attorney Act in 2017. Georgia will generally honor a POA validly created in another state. However, Georgia has specific statutory language that banks, hospitals, and other institutions are accustomed to seeing. If your Alabama POA does not track Georgia's statutory form, some institutions may resist honoring it or ask for additional paperwork, which can cause serious delays in a crisis. Having a Georgia-compliant POA dramatically reduces that friction. Healthcare Directive / Advance Directive This is the most important one to update. Georgia has its own Advance Directive for Health Care form that combines a living will and healthcare proxy. Georgia medical providers are trained on this specific form. An Alabama healthcare directive may be legally valid here, but you may encounter real-world resistance from hospitals and doctors who are not familiar with it. A Georgia-specific advance directive is highly advisable. Practical Concerns Given Your Situation Living alone and widowed means your agent under your POA and your healthcare proxy are your first and only lines of protection if something happens. You want zero friction when those documents need to be used. This is not the situation to test whether an out-of-state document will be accepted in a moment of urgency. You should also confirm that whoever you have named as your agent, executor, and healthcare proxy is still the right person, still willing, and still able to serve. Bottom Line Your documents are not void, but getting them reviewed and updated for Georgia is genuinely worth the time and cost. At a minimum, a new Georgia Advance Directive for Health Care and a Georgia-compliant Durable POA should be strongly considered. While you are at it, confirm your beneficiary designations on any life insurance, IRAs, and bank accounts, as those pass outside your will regardless. Next Step The easiest way to get this handled is to open a project on ContractsCounsel at www.contractscounsel.com. You can post your document review and drafting project there, receive competitive flat-fee bids from Georgia-licensed attorneys who handle exactly this type of elder law work, and get everything updated without having to search for a lawyer on your own. It is a straightforward process and puts you in control of the cost upfront. Given your situation, this is one of those things that is well worth getting done sooner rather than later.

Last Will and Testament
Florida
What is a will, and why is it important to have one?
I am a married adult with two children and I am looking to secure my family's future. I am concerned about what will happen to my assets and my family if something were to happen to me. I want to make sure that my wishes are respected and that my family is taken care of, so I am looking to learn more about wills and how they can help me.
Diane D.
A will allows you to select the persons who you want to receive what you own when you die. Without a will, the court may step in and distribute your assets according to your state's law. With a will, you control what happens with your property, and you can leave specific property to specific persons, and you can appoint specific persons to manage and handle distributing your property. Having a Will can save your heirs significant expense during probate and prevent feuding among them.

Can I make changes to my will after it has been created?
I recently created a will, and my family and financial situation has since changed. I'm wondering if I can make changes to my will to reflect these new changes, or if the will I created is now set in stone. I'm looking for guidance on how to proceed and make sure my wishes are accurately reflected.
Diane D.
yes.

Will
Illinois
Can I designate a non-family member as the executor of my will?
I am in the process of creating my will and estate plan, and I am considering designating a close friend as the executor instead of a family member. My family dynamics are complicated, and I do not have a strong relationship with any of my relatives. I trust my friend's judgment and organizational skills, and I believe they would be better suited to handle the responsibilities of executing my will. Can I legally appoint a non-family member as the executor, and what factors should I consider when making this decision?
Megan W.
Yes, you can appoint anyone you want as your executor of the Will.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
