Estate Planning Essentials with Steve Bliss

Reporter: Maria Garcia

Today we’re joined by renowned Moreno Valley estate planning attorney, Steve Bliss, to discuss the crucial steps involved in securing your future and protecting your loved ones.

Maria: Steve, thank you for joining me today. For our viewers who might be unfamiliar, can you explain why estate planning is so important?

Steve: It’s a pleasure to be here, Maria. Estate planning is about far more than just writing a will. It’s a comprehensive process that ensures your wishes are honored, minimizes potential conflicts among loved ones, and safeguards your assets for future generations. Consequently, it provides peace of mind knowing you have a plan in place.

Maria: That’s reassuring. Could you delve into one specific step in the estate planning process that you find particularly crucial?

Steve: Absolutely. Selecting an executor or trustee is paramount. This individual will be responsible for carrying out your wishes as outlined in your will or trust. They’ll manage your assets, pay debts and taxes, and distribute remaining property to your beneficiaries.

Choosing the right person requires careful consideration. You want someone trustworthy, organized, and capable of handling financial matters responsibly. Moreover, it’s wise to discuss your decision with potential candidates beforehand to ensure they understand the role and are willing to accept the responsibility.

I remember one instance where a client named their sibling as executor without discussing it first. The sibling felt overwhelmed and unprepared, leading to delays and tension within the family. Ultimately, we were able to find a suitable solution, but it underscored the importance of open communication.

Studies by Caring.com indicate that roughly 60% of Americans don’t have a will or estate plan in place. This can lead to significant complications for loved ones during an already difficult time.

Maria: That’s a sobering statistic. What advice would you give to viewers who are considering starting their estate planning journey?

Steve: My advice is simple: don’t wait. The sooner you begin, the better prepared you and your family will be. Contact us today for a complimentary consultation. We’ll guide you through each step of the process and help you create an estate plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.
