Frequently Asked Questions
Isn't a will enough?
Leaving a manageable to-do list isn’t just about documents. I see people with lots of documents leave legal messes all the time. Documents are important, they set up the plan. But it takes more to leaving a manageable to-do list and to make sure the plan actually happens. For example, a will doesn’t prevent probate. It’s for probate! In the Field Guide, you’ll learn how assets move and the role of documents like wills and trusts.
