Resolving to Plan Ahead - One Size Does Not Fill All With New Year’s behind us many will resolve to lose weight, pay off bills, and begin exercising. Yet, have you given thought to getting your estate planning done?

Estate planning is important even for those of little wealth. Do you really want the state to dictate who gets your property? Under Missouri probate law, for those who die without any estate planning, your property will go first to your spouse if they are still alive, then to your children and, if no children, then your parents and siblings. This is the law of intestacy. This process requires that someone go through the court system, and can take 6 months to a year and even longer! You will also need to get an attorney, appoint a personal representative, pay a filling fee, obtain a bond (insurance in case your representative runs off with the money), post a legal notice to creditors in the newspaper, get property appraised, and more. Each of these will require court approval and you will need to pay for these things out of the estate. The whole process can easily cost between 6-10% of the value of the estate. For example, let’s say the only property you own is a house

worth about $100,000. If this goes through probate you might find you are paying $6,000$10,000 dollars for it to pass to your children.

Just having a Will does not avoid this process but allows you to direct where your property goes and who administers the estate. So, how do you get out of this?

With a little planning, you can pass that property by operation of law. A simple beneficiary deed in the above example would have cost only $130-$250 if done prior to death. That is far better than $6,000! For people that have more assets or have multiple children, there are other options as well, including creating a Trust, Family Limited Partnership, or simply making payable on death designations.
