California Estate Planning Attorney Kavesh Minor & Otis

When it comes to getting an estate plan prepared – – whether it’s a Will or Living Trust – – it can be confusing to know whether or not an attorney is necessary. There are a lot of “do it yourself” types of services available out there that give the impression that estate planning is a simple, fill-in-the-blank type of document that’s simply assembled and put together with a few questions and a few clicks of a button.

But, the truth of the matter is that your estate plan can and should be so much more than a stack of legal documents.

Did you know that attorneys were also called “counselors at law”? What this means is that beyond just the estate planning documents that an attorney can prepare for you and your family, an attorney can counsel you about the estate planning decisions that you may make. While you may have a certain idea in your mind about how you want your estate planning to be set up, you may not be aware of some of the potential consequences of those decisions. In particular, with the increasing number of what are called “blended families”, where there are children from a prior marriage, estate planning decisions can become complex and require some additional guidance.

Think about it, if you had a medical need, you wouldn’t opt to go online, self-diagnose yourself and then perform surgery on your own (or let just anyone treat you). You would seek out the experience, expertise, guidance and training of a licensed medical professional. The same is true for your estate planning. You’ve spent your lifetime working hard to take care of your family. Why wouldn’t you take the same care to ensure that your loved ones’ inheritance is properly protected, maintained, distributed and preserved through proper guidance provided by a licensed, experienced estate planning attorney?
