What does an estate plan include?

Wills, trusts, and powers of attorney are standard tools used in estate planning, and these instruments can be customized to fit your specific needs and goals. Our legal team stays updated with the ever-changing estate planning laws to ensure the plan complies with state and federal laws.

Elements of estate planning

Some of the critical elements of a comprehensive estate plan include:

Will

A will is a legal document outlining how you want your assets to be distributed after passing. It allows you to specify beneficiaries, designates guardians for minor children, or allows you to leave gifts to charitable organizations.

Trusts

Trusts are powerful tools that provide added control and flexibility in estate planning. Examples include revocable living trusts, which enable you to transfer your assets to beneficiaries without going through probate, and irrevocable trusts, which offer asset protection and tax benefits.

Power of attorney

Powers of attorney are legal documents that grant someone the authority to make decisions on your behalf. A durable power of attorney for finances allows a trusted individual to handle financial matters if you become incapacitated. A medical power of attorney authorizes someone to make healthcare decisions for you.

A living will

A living will, also known as an advanced healthcare directive, allows you to outline your preferences for medical treatment should you become unable to communicate. It ensures that your healthcare wishes are respected and can alleviate the burden of decision-making from your loved ones.

What is the process?

Estate planning is a very specialized area of law, and at Correa & Martinez Trial Lawyers, we assist our clients through every stage of the process. The estate planning process typically involves the following steps:

Initial consultation

We meet with you to discuss your goals, assets, and concerns. During this consultation, we ask detailed questions to understand your unique circumstances and provide an overview of the estate planning process. Hearing your wishes lets us gather the necessary information for a tailored plan.

Analysis and strategy

Based on the information gathered during the initial consultation, our experienced team analyzes your situation and develops a strategic plan tailored to your needs. We consider family dynamics, financial situation, and what you hope to achieve. These actions help us to determine the most effective estate planning tools to achieve your goals for your estate.

Document drafting

Once the analysis and strategy phase is complete, our attorneys draft the necessary legal documents to implement your estate plan. This can include wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. We ensure that these documents accurately reflect your wishes and comply with applicable laws in Miami.

Review and adjustments

We then review the drafted documents with you to ensure they meet your expectations and accurately represent your intentions. Open communication is encouraged during this stage, allowing us to address concerns or adjust as needed.

Execution and implementation

Once you are satisfied with the estate plan and all necessary adjustments have been made, we will proceed with the execution of the documents. We guide you through the signing and witnessing to ensure the documents are legally valid.
