In-house counsel at Koch Inc. are helping hundreds of low-income residents every year get their driver's licenses reinstated or their criminal records expunged in Kansas, where Koch is based in Wichita, as well as across the U.S. where it has offices, to help restore their access to services and job opportunities.
Your estate consists of everything you own: your home, personal property, car, land, stocks and bonds, life insurance and any other property in which you have an ownership interest. Estate planning is a plan for how you will acquire property, use it, conserve it and, perhaps most importantly, how it will be transferred upon your death. There is no way to determine your wishes regarding distribution of your property after your death unless you take appropriate steps prior to your death. Estate planning can be beneficial no matter what the size of the estate.
