Synopsis

How do you save money and keep control of your money for your children? What are the benefits to getting a Will done? How can you get money from the government? When do you need a simple Will or a complex Will? Stop! What are you Waiting for? Your Step-by-Step Guide to Estate Planning answers these questions and many more in helping you to keep the wealth that you have earned. This comprehensive guide is written by an experienced estate planning and probate attorney who has helped individuals, families, business owners, women, retirees and seniors accomplish their goals of saving money, protecting assets and having peace of mind. Estate planning is a legal step many know they must take as they get older, but few consumers understand it. This book provides a clear, concise overview of the various elements of estate planning and a solid foundation for taking action. It covers wills, health care power of attorney, durable power of attorney, living and testamentary trusts and other estate planning vehicles. The probate process, inheritance taxes and elder-law issues are also addressed. Each aspect of estate planning is explained in simple, uncomplicated language and helpful illustrations of the importance of advance planning are well documented. For example, readers learn about case subjects “Eve and Bob” and their only daughter, Julia, “who at thirty-six still cannot quite make it on her own.” The estate plan of Eve and Bob “includes a trust for the money left for Julia, who is not fiscally responsible enough to manage the money herself.” This and other scenarios in the book are especially helpful in demonstrating estate planning in action. A chapter on elder law is included because people are living longer—as a result, the definition of estate planning must be expanded to include healthcare and long-term care planning. A worksheet is provided in the appendix for use which will help facilitate information gathering in preparation for estate planning. The book helps readers become less intimidated by the estate planning process. In Stop! What are you Waiting for? Your Step-by-Step Guide to Estate Planning, the author Yvette Taylor-Hachoose, an experienced estate planning and probate attorney, makes something as confusing as estate planning very understandable. The book is informative, practical and provides examples of the essential aspects of estate planning. The reader gets a personalized consultation through the hypothetical situations posed in the book on wills, trusts, probate, estate planning and elder law.
