Preparing for the Unexpected in Hunterdon County 

Established in 1714, Hunterdon County is immersed in technology, life sciences, agribusiness, advanced manufacturing, business and finance, and corporate headquarters. Residents boast about the rural landscape, vibrant businesses, and educational opportunities.  

Known for “ensuring our quality of life now and for the future,” Hunterdon County is considered the safest county in America to raise a child. Only an hour from Philadelphia and an hour from New York City, Hunterdon County’s hundreds of preserved farmlands and ample acres of county parks make it easy to access rural solitude and urban amenities.   

Our estate planning attorneys recognize the challenges of planning for the unexpected, especially for residents of areas like Hunterdon County. Fortunately, we are prepared to explain your options and guide you through the planning process to ensure you and your family know what to expect, no matter the circumstances. 

Protect Your Assets With a New Jersey Estate Planning Lawyer 

The unexpected loss of a loved one is unthinkable. However, there is no way to know for sure how our lives will play out. It only takes a moment for an entire family to be turned upside down by loss or a sudden illness. As such, it is crucial to know how to protect your assets and loved ones.

While you have every right to draft your own will or trust using self-service resources, it is unlikely you will save any time, money, or stress taking on the task yourself. When you work with a qualified estate planning lawyer, they will not only have the knowledge and resources available to interpret laws regarding property rights, wills, probate, etc., but they will also ensure all filings are correct to avoid confusion or delays in the future. 

Remember that it is never too early to establish an estate plan. Whether you are just beginning your professional career, are starting a family, or have entered your golden years of retirement, it is vital to have a plan in place in the event of your passing. 

No matter what you want to establish with an estate plan, Van Dyck Law Group is prepared to help. We’ll review your most important priorities and ensure the plan you set in place makes those goals achievable. We will also ensure your estate plan is kept current in case your wishes change as the years pass.  

Estates, Wills, Trusts, and More 

If you’ve never encountered estate planning terminology before, the process can seem intimidating. Fortunately, we are here to help. 

No matter what questions you have regarding the estate planning process, wills, probate, etc., Van Dyck Law Group can answer your questions and give you the best opportunity to secure your family’s future and your own personal legacy. 

While we will review everything you need to know through the estate planning process, you may benefit from learning about aspects of the process. Let’s look at some of the most commonly asked questions regarding the estate planning process. 

What Is a Will? 

A last will and testament is a written legal document that lays out your wishes for passing on property, as well instructions for your funeral arrangements, guardianship of any dependents, and designation of your estate’s representative.. A current will ensures your family can avoid unnecessary stress, and your legacy will be upheld.

What Is the Purpose of a Trust?

Without an established estate plan, your assets could be subject to probate, creditor claims, or estate taxes. Fortunately, New Jersey law gives you the option to set aside certain assets through a gift, a trust, and similar arrangements. When properly created, the assets in your trust can be passed along to designated beneficiaries without being subject to probate court. If you are looking to pass property along to individuals or have financial matters that need to be resolved, a trust may be the answer. 

Do You Need an Advance Directive?

An advance directive specifies your wishes in the event you are medically incapacitated. In addition to outlining the type of life-saving measures you wish to receive, an advance directive may also be used to delegate responsibility to family members. If you want to designate an individual with the ability to make decisions for you on your behalf, you will need a power of attorney for both medical and financial considerations.
