What should everyone in Memphis and Mississippi look at before going to their estate planning lawyer? The new ABA Estate Planning Guide. It’s a great source of information for all of your questions about wills, trusts, power of attorneys and probate both for here in Memphis, Tennessee and Mississippi.

I’ve included a link to each chapter that you can click on to download and view.

Ch. 1: Getting Started
Ch. 2: Transferring Property without a Will
Ch. 3: Making a Will
Ch. 4: Trusts
Ch. 5: Living Trusts
Ch. 6: Common Estate Planning Situations
Ch. 7: Special Considerations
Ch. 8: Death and Taxes
Ch. 9: Changing Your Mind: Changing, Adding to, or Revoking Your Will or Trust
Ch. 10: Choosing the Executor or Trustee
Ch. 11: Planning Now to Make Things Easier for Your Family
Ch. 12: When You Can’t Make the Decision: Living Wills, Powers of Attorney, and Other Disability Issues

I’d like to give thanks to Attorney David Goldman over at floridaestateplanninglawyerblog.com for bringing this to my attention.
