Plan ahead with greater clarity.
Estate planning is about more than a set of documents. It is a conversation about the people who matter to you, the property you own, and who should make decisions if you cannot. A useful plan reflects your actual family and financial circumstances.
Whether you are starting a plan, reviewing older documents, or facing questions after a death, contact Rohani Law Group to discuss the services appropriate for your situation.
01
Wills
A will can express how property should be distributed and nominate people for important responsibilities. Discuss how it fits with your other planning documents.
02
Trusts
A trust may be part of a broader estate plan. Ask about its purpose, administration, and the steps needed to align ownership of relevant assets.
03
Probate
After a death, the appropriate process depends on the assets, ownership, and existing documents. Get guidance on the questions facing an executor or family member.
Planning that reflects your life.
Prepare a general inventory of real estate, accounts, business interests, and other significant assets. Consider the people you would want to act on your behalf and the beneficiaries you wish to provide for.
If you already have a will or trust, have it available along with amendments and related documents. Changes in family relationships, property, or personal priorities are good reasons to discuss whether an update is needed.
Questions after a loved one’s death.
Bring existing estate documents, relevant notices, and a general list of known property. The office can discuss potential representation and the information needed to understand the administration process.
Common questions
Answers to help you get started.
Do I need both a will and a trust?
That depends on your circumstances and goals. Each can serve a different purpose. Ask how the documents would work together in your situation.
Does having a will avoid probate?
Not necessarily. The need for probate depends on the assets, title, and available transfer procedures, not simply on whether a will exists.
Can an older estate plan be reviewed?
Yes. Ask the office about reviewing existing documents and whether updates would be appropriate for your current circumstances.
