This plan typically includes preparing legal documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and advanced healthcare directives. The purpose of estate planning is to ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and that your loved ones are taken care of in the event of your death or incapacity. Additionally, estate planning can also help you minimize estate taxes, avoid probate, and protect your assets from creditors or other potential threats.
