Hernandez & Associates, located in Brooklyn, New York, we identify ways to allocate and structure financial resources for the purposes of taking care of loved ones in the event of disability or death.

I'm Fairly Young - Do I Need a Will or Trust?
We know it can be a little strange - talking about yourself in the past tense. However, failing to plan for the unexpected could mean the difference between providing your family with a tax-smart, efficient plan that saves them money and exposing them to expensive, lengthy probate hearings.
And, in cases when a will or trust does not exist, non-family members can lay claim to some or all of your assets, further complicating things for your family. Since probate hearings are a matter of public record, leaving a will or trust behind allows you to keep matters private and in your family, away from the public and prying eyes.
