Estate Plan

Starts when you’ve passed on 

Your assets are distributed by an executor when you’re no longer around.

Often, your beneficiaries are not included in estate-planning discussions – meaning there’s no opportunity to adjust the plan based on their wishes. May cause friction within families if not handled well.

Starts while you’re alive

The transfer of your wealth begins while you’re still around.

On-going dialogue allows you to smooth out unnecessary conflict.
