Importance of Estate Planning 

Estate planning is the process of nominating beneficiaries who will receive your assets in the event of your untimely death or incapacitation. In general, a comprehensive estate plan protects your heirs from paying excessive taxes on the assets that you have passed on to them. Here are some of the reasons why estate planning is very important.

• Estate planning avoids asset distribution to unintended beneficiaries.
• It ensures timely distribution of assets to your rightful beneficiaries.
• It minimizes your heir’s estate tax liability
• It prevents disagreements between family members and relatives.
• It gives you peace of mind knowing that your loved ones are secured and protected.

Planning for asset distribution is a sensitive and complex process. This is why hiring a certified public accountant like Desroches Partners is beneficial to help you and your lawyer when it comes to planning, documenting, and enforcing your will. 

Importance of Succession Planning

Succession planning is one of the most common challenges faced by small and large businesses alike. Even if you don’t anticipate stepping down from a key position anytime soon, continuous succession planning is necessary to safeguard your company’s future. Here are some of the reasons why succession planning is crucial for business continuity.

• Succession planning prepares the next generation of leaders.
• It secures your company’s financial future
• It prevents a dip in employee performance and problematic organizational structure.
• It enables recruitment in-house.
• It creates a structure for training and development

Future-proofing your business is difficult, but not impossible. When done successfully, succession planning is a great way to retain and train qualified successors who can keep your business in good standing for many years to come.
