Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about estate planning, probate, and international legal services

When should I start estate planning?

Estate planning should begin as soon as you have assets to protect or loved ones to provide for. Whether you're a young family just starting out or have accumulated significant wealth, having a proper estate plan in place is crucial. Our Scottsdale estate planning lawyer team can help you determine the right time and appropriate strategies for your situation.

What makes international estate planning different?

International estate planning involves complex considerations including multiple tax jurisdictions, currency exchange, foreign asset reporting requirements, and varying inheritance laws. Our firm's unique international expertise and network of global associates enable us to navigate these complexities effectively for clients with assets or family members overseas.

How long does the probate process typically take?

The probate process timeline varies depending on the complexity of the estate, number of beneficiaries, and potential disputes. In Arizona, simple probate cases may be completed in 4-6 months, while more complex estates can take 12-18 months or longer. Our experienced Scottsdale probate attorney team works diligently to streamline the process and minimize delays.

Can I avoid probate with proper estate planning?

Yes, many assets can avoid probate through proper estate planning techniques such as living trusts, joint ownership, beneficiary designations, and other strategies. As your estate planning lawyer Scottsdale advisors, we can help you structure your estate to minimize probate requirements while ensuring your wishes are carried out efficiently.

What is the difference between a will and a trust?

A will is a legal document that directs how your assets will be distributed after death and must go through probate. A trust is a legal entity that can hold and manage assets during your lifetime and after death, often avoiding probate. Trusts can provide greater privacy, control, and tax benefits. Our attorneys can help you determine which approach best suits your needs.

How often should I update my estate plan?

Estate plans should be reviewed every 3-5 years or whenever significant life events occur, such as marriage, divorce, birth of children, death of beneficiaries, substantial changes in assets, or changes in tax laws. Regular reviews ensure your plan continues to meet your goals and takes advantage of current legal strategies.
