Estate planning covers wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and beneficiary designations to manage your affairs now and after you pass.

Understand common terms used in estate planning, from wills to living trusts and guardianship provisions.
A will is a legal document that directs how your assets will be distributed after death and who will serve as guardian for minor children.
A trust is a legal arrangement where assets are held by a trustee for beneficiaries according to your instructions, often helping with probate avoidance and privacy.
A durable power of attorney designates someone to handle financial decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so.
A directive that records your medical preferences and appoints someone to make healthcare choices when you cannot speak for yourself.
