Estate Planning For Gun Owners: How To Get Your Affairs In Order - Including The issues Related To Firearms

This book is a step-by-step estate planning guide including the transfer of firearms at your death and how to protect yourself from firearms liability. There are individual chapters about estate plans for people with minor children; adult children; without children and couples with blended families. 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; the transfer of firearms at death; insurance issues unique to firearms; gun trusts; 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 no do-it-yourself legal forms, but there are 10 forms and checklists you can download (included in the price of the book) which make estate planning complete, 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 your affairs are in order, you will have made things as easy as possible for your family and you will achieve peace of mind for yourself.”
