It is about more than just having a will that would state who the deceased person wanted to take their possessions. Estate planning would involve what I call a “life plan” as well, meaning how the person would hold assets while they were still alive. It includes what would happen if they were to get sued. For example, if they owned everything outright, then people could come and take what they owned.

However, if some estate planning or asset protection work had been done, then companies, trusts or other entities could be created that would own or hold those assets. The person would get to use them. They just would not own them anymore. Either a company or a trust would own them.

These layers of protection could be created so that if, for some reason, somebody decided to sue the person and their insurance was not enough or perhaps they did not have any coverage, then at least the person would not lose their possessions or anything else that had been put in trust. This would just be one aspect of it.
The other aspect would address the situation in case a tragedy occurred. For example, if a person had a stroke or a heart attack, and were still alive but no longer competent to take care of their own affairs, a power of attorney would be used.

A financial power of attorney would allow someone else to sign checks off on the person’s bank accounts so they could pay bills. This would prevent the person losing their home in a foreclosure because they were unable to pay their mortgage.
A healthcare power of attorney would allow the designated person to make medical decisions for the incapacitated person since they would not be able to make those decisions on their own.

People would generally have to do life planning as well as an estate plan.

When you set a goal, you program it into the subconscious; then the subconscious takes on a power of its own and starts moving you rapidly toward its goal.

– Brian Tracy

Are you using your subconscious mind?

Are you “programming” your subconscious?

Do you know “how to learn”?

What are you learning?

Are you memorizing things that are irrelevant or are you learning to think deeply and ponder knowledge and gain intelligence?

Have you set goals?

Do you think having inspiring goals?

What action have you taken today to accomplish your goals?

Is having more of X your goal?

Once you have more of X are you going to be happier? How do you know?

Should you re-evaluate your goals? When is the best time to do that? When have you scheduled to do that?

This is a question that I am asked frequently from a spouse who was either recently served with divorce paperwork or from a spouse who is still in love with their partner and wants to remain in the marriage (even though their spouse has said “it’s over”) —

The question: Can I force my husband/wife to stay married to me?

The answer: No – you can’t.

I go into more detail in the video.

The story I tell you is real. The poor guy was heartbroken that his wife no longer wanted to be married to him. He loved her and I could tell from the sound of his voice. Once you watch the video, you’ll understand better.

I was asked this week, why are the divorce laws against men? Under Utah law, there is a presumption of equality for me and women under the law. In fact, under Utah law, there is a presumption that parents share joint legal custody of their minor children. My experience as an attorney is that there is no prejudice against men or women. Facts play a role in each case. If you have questions about your case, please contact us for a free initial consultation 801-676-5506. Hope you enjoy the video.
