Probate Attorneys in Ann Arbor Offer Tips to Deal With an "Oops" After Someone Passes Away

eTradeWire News/10789477
ANN ARBOR, Mich. - eTradeWire -- Setting up a trust is a great way to plan for the future and avoid the complexities of probate. However, even the most well-intentioned plans can sometimes fall short.

Despite careful planning, it's easy to overlook certain assets or make mistakes in the titling process. Here are some common pitfalls:
  • Forgetting to Title Assets in Trust: One of the most frequent mistakes is failing to transfer assets into a trust. This can happen with investment accounts, bank accounts, or other assets.
  • Overlooking Beneficiary Designations: Neglecting to name beneficiaries for retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and annuities can result in probate.
  • Changes in Circumstances: Life changes, such as marriage, divorce, or the birth of children, can impact estate plans. It's essential to review and update beneficiary designations and trust documents accordingly.
