AIKEN ATTORNEYS THAT ARE RIGHT THERE WITH YOU.
Wills and Trusts
Only 32% of Americans have a will or other estate planning documents, which can lead to significant legal complications for families. Seeking legal advice ensures that one’s assets are distributed according to their wishes and helps avoid lengthy probate processes.
Age Distribution
With only 20% of Millennials having a will, many younger families risk leaving their loved ones unprotected. Legal counsel can provide guidance on establishing wills and trusts early, safeguarding against unexpected events.
Probate Costs
Probate can consume 3% to 7% of an estate’s value. Legal advice can help in setting up trusts or other instruments to minimize probate costs and ensure a smooth transition of assets.
