Toma el control de su futuro con un plan patrimonial

2019 está llegando a su fin y el año nuevo está a la vista. En consecuencia, es el momento perfecto para reflexionar sobre nuestros objetivos para el año venidero. Cada individuo tiene diferentes prioridades con respecto al tratamiento médico de emergencia, la distribución de activos y los arreglos al final de la vida. Tome el control de su futuro creando un plan patrimonial completo. El mejor regalo que puedes darte a ti mismo y a tus seres queridos es el de la tranquilidad.

¿Usted sabía?

Las personas que mueren sin un plan de patrimonio establecido (también conocido como “morir intestado”) no tienen voz sobre la distribución de sus activos. En cambio, la ley intestada determina esto. La ley intestada varía según el estado, y generalmente favorece a los cónyuges y parientes consanguíneos como herederos legales. Puede estar en desacuerdo con estas disposiciones por una variedad de razones. Tal vez, le gustaría que su pareja soltera herede sus activos. O bien, puede preferir amigos, en lugar de miembros de la familia, para ser sus beneficiarios designados. Un plan patrimonial personalizado ciertamente debería ser una prioridad si sus preferencias están en desacuerdo con la ley intestada.

Elegir partes de confianza

Un elemento importante en la creación de su plan patrimonial es elegir a las personas responsables de llevar a cabo sus deseos. El ejecutor de su testamento tiene la tarea de administrar los activos y la distribución del patrimonio después de su fallecimiento, junto con garantizar que se cumplan las disposiciones de su testamento. Un documento de poder notarial le permite seleccionar un agente que tomará decisiones financieras y legales en su nombre si no puede hacerlo. Del mismo modo, puede elegir un agente de atención médica a través de un documento de directivas avanzadas, que tomará decisiones médicas que se ajusten a sus preferencias.

Puede seleccionar la misma persona para actuar en cada una de las capacidades mencionadas. Alternativamente, puede sentir que diferentes personas son más adecuadas para cada posición. En cualquier caso, es importante que estas personas conozcan las responsabilidades de su rol y que confíen en ellos para satisfacer sus solicitudes.

Dueños de negocios

La planificación patrimonial es particularmente importante para los empresarios. Los propietarios de pequeñas empresas pueden proteger su empresa mediante la creación de un plan de sucesión de negocios (comercial). Un plan de sucesión comercial le permite a un individuo hacer los arreglos para una transferencia de propiedad y administración en caso de fallecimiento o incapacidad del dueño del negocio. Esto puede significar mantener el negocio dentro de la familia o vender el negocio a otra entidad a través de un acuerdo de compra-venta. Después de haber dedicado una gran cantidad de tiempo y esfuerzo a un negocio, es esencial hacer los arreglos para los próximos años. No dejes tu futuro en manos del destino; Ahora es el mejor momento para comenzar la preparación de la planificación patrimonial.

I highly recommend Attorney Smith to carry out all your estate planning needs. Her approach includes taking the time to educate her clients on their options and explaining tough to understand concepts in a clear way without rushing through the process. Her demeanor made the necessary challenging and personal conversations less intimidating. Attorney Smith and her team (Alexandra) were efficient, patient, and responsive, operating like a well oiled machine. My experience was top notch!
