A will is a legal document that allows you to designate how your assets will be distributed after your death. You can also use a will to appoint a guardian for your minor children. If you die without a will, your assets will be distributed according to Idaho state law.
A trust is an estate planning tool that can be used to manage your assets during your lifetime and after your death. Trusts can be used for a variety of purposes, including estate tax planning, asset protection, and avoiding probate.
A power of attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone to manage your financial affairs if you become incapacitated. A durable power of attorney remains in effect even if you become incapacitated, while a springing power of attorney only takes effect if you become incapacitated.
Naming a beneficiary on your retirement account, life insurance policy, or other assets can help ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your death.
