This book is a step-by-step estate planning guide for a single person. There are individual chapters about estate plans for singles with mir children; singles with adult children; and singles without children. If you already have an estate plan, use the book to evaluate if your estate plan is up-to-date or if changes are necessary. Some of the topics included are: wills don't avoid probate; beneficiary designations supersede wills; a power of attorney terminates when you die; always name an alternate power of attorney; estate taxes (updated to reflect 2013 estate tax law); a properly funded living trust will avoid probate; how to pick an estate planning attorney; and how a living trust differs from living wills. Forms There are do-it-yourself legal forms, but there are 10 forms and checklists for download (included in the price of the book) which make estate planning comprehensive, efficient and easy. A Personal Note from the Author Although I've been an estate planning and probate attorney for 30 years, I'm really in the Peace of Mind business. Once you have your affairs in order, you will have made things as easy as possible for your family and you will achieve peace of mind.
