Frequently Asked Questions

What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Standish Maine?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney for finances, and an advance healthcare directive. Maine law also allows for a living will to express your end-of-life wishes.

Not everyone needs a trust. In Maine, estates valued under $40,000 can use a simplified probate process called a small estate affidavit. A trust may help you avoid probate for larger estates and provide more control over asset distribution.
