Estate Planner with Generation Living Trusts, you’ll gain straight talk on Living Trusts vs. Wills and
learn how Arizona’s new probate limits could affect your plan. Together, we’ll cut through the confusion,
share practical strategies, and help you take the next confident step toward lasting peace of mind.
Whether you’re updating an existing plan or starting fresh, you’ll leave feeling informed,
empowered, and ready to protect what matters most.
Learning Arizona’s New Probate Limits
Arizona’s probate limits have changed — and the updates could impact your estate plan. Learn how these new thresholds affect what goes through probate and what qualifies for simplified procedures. Understanding the new rules can help you protect your family, minimize delays, and avoid costly surprises.
Avoiding Probate and “Double Probate
Probate can be time-consuming, expensive, and emotionally draining — especially when it happens twice across state lines or with multiple properties. Discover how a properly structured Living Trust can prevent “double probate” and keep your affairs private and efficient, protecting the people you love.
Protecting Your Family’s Future
Your estate plan isn’t just paperwork — it’s a lasting act of love. We’ll explore how to ensure your healthcare wishes, guardianship preferences, and financial plans are honored. Gain peace of mind knowing your family won’t face confusion or conflict during life’s most emotional moments.
