Estate planning gives YOU the power to detail how you would like your estate handled once you have passed on. Your estate includes a variety of things you own, including your home, car, investments, financial accounts, and other personal possessions. Unlike a will, an estate plan is an extensive plan that manages your assets, where you can decide who receives your assets, what exactly it is that they will receive, as well as when and how they will receive it. This can include family, friends, and organizations; anyone you want!
