Common Questions About Estate Planning

  • Do I need a lawyer to create a will or trust in Illinois?

    Legally, no—but DIY documents often miss important protections. A knowledgeable attorney ensures your plan is valid, customized, and legally enforceable.

  • What’s the difference between a will and a trust?

    A will takes effect after death and may go through probate. A trust can avoid probate, offer privacy, and provide more control over how and when your assets are distributed. We’ll explain both and help you choose the right path.

  • How often should I update my estate plan?

    We recommend reviewing your plan every 3–5 years, or after any major life event like a marriage, birth, divorce, or move.
