Interview with Brenda Miller
Good morning, Moreno Valley and welcome back to our segment on local legal matters. Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Steve Bliss, a respected estate planning attorney here in Moreno Valley. Steve, thanks for joining us.
Steve Bliss: Always happy to help inform the community.
Absolutely! Now, Steve, let’s talk about something that can seem overwhelming to many – estate planning. For those just starting out, what would you say is one of the most crucial initial steps?
Steve Bliss: Crafting a Will or Trust
Brenda, crafting a will or trust is fundamental. It’s the legal document where you outline exactly how you want your assets distributed after you pass away. Think of it as a roadmap for your loved ones, providing clarity and minimizing potential conflicts.
Consequently, a well-drafted will or trust can prevent ambiguity and ensure your wishes are honored. Now, wills are generally simpler and less expensive, outlining the distribution of assets. Trusts, on the other hand, offer more control and flexibility, particularly if you have complex financial situations or want to minimize estate taxes.
I recall one instance where a client hadn’t established a will. His passing left his family grappling with legal complexities and disagreements over who inherited what. It was heartbreaking to witness the emotional strain and financial burden they endured. Conversely, those who have taken the time to create a clear plan, like my client Mrs. Rodriguez, experience peace of mind knowing their loved ones are protected.
It’s worth noting that according to a 2021 survey by Caring.com, nearly 60% of American adults don’t have a will. This statistic underscores the importance of prioritizing estate planning.
