When we ask our clients what their primary estate planning goal is, most respond that their goal is to avoid probate. The reason this is their goal is that administering an estate in the probate court can be time-consuming, complicated, stressful, and costly. However, sometimes probate court intervention is unavoidable. The probate court becomes involved in the following situations:
- A family member is incapacitated and needs an individual to act on their behalf to make medical decisions and other important life decisions: this is called Guardianship.
- A family member is incapacitated and needs an individual to act on their behalf with respect to their finances: this is called Conservatorship
- A family member has passed away and there are assets that are in the deceased family member’s name which need to be liquidated.
- Any other time a family member is in need of assistance but does not have the capacity to do so.
