What Information Or Documents Should I Consider When Creating My Estate Plan?

There are many factors to think about when creating your estate plan. Since the circumstances of each individual and family differ, it is advisable to meet with an experienced estate planning attorney who can help you understand your options and design an estate plan that is tailored to meet your specific needs. At a minimum, most people include the following four main estate planning documents: a will, a durable power of attorney, a living will, and a durable heath care power of attorney. Your estate planning attorney will go over your choices with you and implement a customized estate plan that will provide the best protections for you and your family.


What Is Probate?

When someone passes away, their estate enters a period known as probate. During this time, the Arkansas probate court typically oversees the administration and dispersal of the estate among the beneficiaries. Although the process usually lasts a minimum of six months, there are several factors that impact the exact duration of a particular case. After the estate has been evaluated, any remaining debts or taxes have been repaid, and the beneficiaries have received their inheritances, the court will officially conclude the probate period once properly petitioned by the representative.


What Does Co-Ownership Of An Aircraft Look Like?

Since aircraft purchases involve significant sums of money, many people choose to pursue a co-ownership agreement. This concept allows two or more parties to diffuse the overall cost of buying and maintaining an airplane. However, there are many factors that you should consider carefully before signing the official documents. Since the aircraft can be considered an asset, you and your co-owners will need to determine how the death or incapacitation of one of the owners will impact the agreement. You will need to discuss the obligations of each of the co-owners, and putting these details in writing is essential to prevent future legal disputes. If you are interested in exploring a co-ownership agreement, or if you have other questions relating to aviation laws in Arkansas, call Natural State Law, PLLC today to speak with our experienced attorneys.
