LegacyGuard Estate Planning is working to narrow the estate planning gap for American families by providing an attorney-supported living trust model. This model is designed to make comprehensive estate planning easier to understand and more accessible nationwide.

Estate Planning Gap

Millions of American adults have yet to complete an estate plan, leaving families to confront probate, court procedures, and uncertainty after the loss of a loved one. LegacyGuard Estate Planning believes that one of the primary reasons for this gap is not a lack of concern, but a lack of access.

The company has built its model around revocable living trusts and an attorney network designed to serve clients throughout the United States. LegacyGuard’s process begins with education, providing prospective clients with access to educational materials explaining how living trusts operate, what probate involves, and how assets are transferred into a trust.

Living Trusts

A properly structured and funded living trust can provide a structure for managing trust assets during life, incapacity, and after death. This can help families avoid probate proceedings, legal expenses, delays, and difficult decisions during an already emotional period.

LegacyGuard’s model is designed to make comprehensive estate planning more accessible and affordable for American families. The company uses technology to streamline education, information gathering, communication, and document preparation, while retaining attorney involvement where legal work is required.
