Most people think that they only need to have a last will and testament in order to keep control of their estate, but a will won’t avoid probate, and is limited in the scope of protection it can provide. An estate plan should also include other documents, such as:

• A trust (a fiduciary relationship that secures your assets)
• A power of attorney (gives someone else the power to manage your assets)
• An advance directive (clarifies your wishes for medical care in the event of incapacitation)
• A health care proxy (designates someone you trust to make medical decisions on your behalf if you cannot)
• Beneficiary designations (transfers assets directly to heirs upon your death)
• Insurance policy information
• And more

Some people think that hiring an estate planning attorney is an unnecessary expense and attempt to draft a plan on their own, with the help of advice or templates they find online. However, legal information from the internet is almost certainly generic – not personalized to your unique situation and not compliant with Georgia laws – and may be outdated. Without an attorney on your side, your plan may not be upheld by the court and may not accomplish everything (or anything) that you or your family thought that it would! Since your life, family dynamics, and financial circumstances are not like everyone else’s, your estate plan shouldn’t be like everyone else’s either. Fouts Law Group will take the time to get to know you and get an accurate picture of your goals so we can design a custom plan that you and your family can have confidence in!
