Estate Planning Attorney Steps
The first question centers around the client’s family. Are they married? Were they ever divorced? Do they have any children and grandchildren. Are any children from a prior relationship? If they don’t have children, are their parents alive and do they have siblings?
Once we understand the family structure, we discuss the client’s financial picture. Even though not all assets will pass through the will, it is necessary to know what the client owns or has an interest in.
Once we find out about the family and the assets, we discuss what the client wants to happen with his assets after he passes away.
