We understand the common questions parents have about this. Here are some answers to the most common questions we hear.

 Q: When should I create a will?

A: It is never too early to plan for the future. As soon as you become a parent, or if you are expecting a child, it is important to consider creating a will.

 Q: How do I make sure my children are taken care of?

A: When you create your will, you can name a guardian for your children who will provide them with a safe and loving home if something happens to you. You can also establish trust to ensure that your children’s financial needs will be met.

 Q: What should I consider when setting up a trust?

A: A trust can give your children the financial security they need. When setting up a trust, consider how you want to manage the assets, how you want the trust to be managed, and how it should terminate.

 Q: What occurs if I fail to create a will?

A: Without a valid will, your assets may be distributed according to the laws in your state. This could mean that your children may not receive the inheritance you wanted them to have.
