If you’ve recently had a child or gotten married, congratulations! You probably have a to-do list a mile long—but there’s one item many young families overlook: estate planning.
It’s not just for the wealthy or elderly. It’s about protecting your kids and your future.
Why It Matters for Young Parents
If something happens to you and your spouse, who takes care of your child?
Without legal guardianship documents, the state will decide—and it may not be who you’d choose.
Also:
- Your assets may not automatically go to your spouse or child.
- Your family could face probate court delays and expenses.
- Minor children can’t inherit directly—someone must manage those assets.
What Every Young Family Needs
- Last Will & Testament – Names guardians and outlines wishes
- Power of Attorney – Lets someone handle finances if you’re incapacitated
- Health Care Surrogate – Names someone to make medical decisions
- Simple Trust (Optional) – Helps manage assets for minor children
