Estate planning is all about control. With an estate plan you can control both financial and non-financial aspects of your estate. At your death you can designate “who gets what and when they get it”. For many people, the most compelling reason for having an estate plan is to make sure their intended beneficiaries receive their estate assets and to make sure certain others do not receive their estate assets. The truth is if you do nothing (i.e. have no estate plan in place at death) your state of residence and the probate court(s) where assets are located will step in and transfer your assets according to a state created will ("intestate succession"). This state created will may distribute your estate to people that were not intended to benefit from your estate. Without an estate plan, you are essentially forfeiting control of your estate.

Clients often assume that Confidentiality Agreements are simple boilerplate documents which can be recycled from your last client by simply changing names and dates from its last use. However, you as the attorney (or future attorney) know that a Confidentiality Agreement needs to be tailor-made and custom fitted for each client in order to protect your client’s property rights. Below are a few items to consider when drafting a Confidentiality Agreement for your client.
