Creating an estate plan is about more than just passing down assets, it’s about protecting your loved ones, ensuring your wishes are honored, and avoiding unnecessary legal and financial burdens. Without an estate plan, your family may face costly probate proceedings, potential disputes, and unexpected tax implications.
If you haven’t yet created an estate plan, now is the time to put your affairs in order and secure your family’s future.
Here’s why a comprehensive estate plan is essential:
Clearly outline who inherits your assets and who will make decisions on your behalf.
Proper planning can help your loved ones avoid lengthy and expensive probate processes.
Reduce estate and gift taxes so your family keeps more of your wealth.
Name guardians for your children to ensure they are cared for by someone you trust.
Designate powers of attorney and healthcare directives in case you become unable to make decisions.
Ensure financial security for your family, including those with special needs.

Yes, working with a local trust attorney ensures compliance with Colorado’s specific laws and provides convenient access for consultations and updates to your estate plan.
Without a will or estate plan, your assets will be distributed according to Colorado state laws, which may not align with your wishes. This can lead to delays, disputes, and unintended beneficiaries.
While both documents outline how your assets will be distributed, a trust takes effect immediately upon creation and can help avoid probate, whereas a will is implemented after your passing and typically requires probate.
A family trust provides financial security for your loved ones, reduces probate delays, and allows you to specify how and when your assets are distributed.
We recommend reviewing your plan every 3–5 years or after any major life event, such as a marriage, divorce, birth, or relocation.
