Welcome to Housley Insurance & Financial Services! Here, we’re all about making sure you and your loved ones are taken care of in every possible way. Estate planning might sound like something only the super-wealthy need to worry about, but trust us—it’s for everyone. Whether you’re just starting out or thinking about your legacy, having a solid estate plan can bring peace of mind and protect your assets.
Estate planning is essential for anyone who wants to ensure their assets are distributed according to their wishes. Imagine having control over your legacy, providing for your family, and avoiding the potential legal battles that can arise without a clear plan. Plus, it can minimize taxes and administrative expenses. At Housley Insurance & Financial Services, we understand the emotional weight of these decisions, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Estate planning isn’t just about writing a will. It’s a comprehensive approach that can include trusts, power of attorney, healthcare directives, and more. Here are some typical elements:
A will outlines how you want your assets distributed and names a guardian for minor children.
Trusts can help manage your assets during your lifetime and specify how they are handled after your death.
Appoint someone to make financial or medical decisions if you’re unable to do so.
At Housley Insurance & Financial Services, we know how crucial it is to have comprehensive coverage. Here are some typical claims that estate planning insurance can cover:
| Claim Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Executor Fees | Costs associated with the person responsible for executing the will. |
| Legal Expenses | Attorney fees for setting up and maintaining estate plans. |
| Trustee Costs | Expenses for managing trusts. |
| Appraisal Fees | Costs of appraising property and other assets. |
| Tax Liabilities | Covering potential tax expenses from estate transfer. |

Q: What happens if I don’t have an estate plan?

It’s a good idea to review and update your estate plan every few years or whenever significant life events occur, such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or changes in your financial situation. For any updates, call us at 541-998-2301.
