Top 12 Benefits of Estate Planning – #5

Another great benefit of estate planning is that the person is able to protect the inheritance of his or her children in the event that his surviving spouse gets remarried after his death with someone who has children. If the will is planned carefully then the inheritance of the children is protected while the surviving spouse is still provided for. By doing this, the worry factor about the children or stepchildren from a later marriage claiming the part of the estate is been eliminated. An estate attorney knows how to make sure your belongings go to your children only.
