FAQs
Here are answers to common questions about estate planning. If you’d like personalized guidance, click below.
What documents are included in an estate plan?
An estate plan typically includes a will, revocable living trust, durable power of attorney, and healthcare directive to manage your assets and medical wishes.
Do I need a lawyer to create a will in Minnesota?
While you can draft a will yourself, an attorney ensures it meets Minnesota’s legal requirements, minimizes challenges, and reflects your unique goals.
How often should I update my estate plan?
Review every 3–5 years or after major life events—marriage, new child, divorce, or significant asset changes—to keep your plan current.
What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
A will directs asset distribution and goes through probate; a living trust often avoids probate, offers greater privacy, and can manage assets if you become incapacitated.
Can I include guardianship provisions for my minor children?
Yes—your estate plan can nominate guardians and outline financial support arrangements to ensure your children’s care aligns with your wishes.
