Dayton Estate Planning Attorneys

Probate is a system through which a deceased person’s property is distributed to their heirs or beneficiaries. You may have heard that probate is something to avoid, and this can be true in some cases. The right estate plan can help keep many of your assets out of time-consuming legal administration or possibly even bypass it entirely with the right approach, depending on your situation. However, probate isn’t always something to avoid. Having the oversight of a Probate Court can provide extra security to ensure your wishes are carried out and that the parties you choose to bear that responsibility are held accountable during the process. Estate planning doesn’t just involve your assets and belongings; it can also include designating agents to provide for your care in the event you are unable to make those decisions yourself.
