Trusts can help avoid the probate process. A will alone may not be sufficient for effective estate planning. Funding your trust is crucial for it to be effective. Regularly updating your estate plan is necessary as life changes occur. Business succession planning is vital for business owners. An inventory of assets is a helpful first step in planning. Having a good relationship with a lawyer is important for effective planning. Keep your family out of conflict and court by planning ahead. Estate planning can save your family from costly probate fees. ----- Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Estate Planning and Business Succession 05:48 Understanding the Importance of Estate Planning 08:45 Key Components of an Estate Plan 09:39 The Role of Trusts in Estate Planning
