These days, we're all busy, with a long list of unfinished tasks and not enough hours in each day to get them done.
For many people, one of those unfinished tasks is creating will, trust, and other estate planning documents that will actually work when tested, that can cover the significant events in our lives and what happens when we die, and that can protect our families and loved ones from unnecessary delays, costs, liabilities, and aggravations.
People tend to view "getting a will" as relating only to death, but the "planning" involved usually affects most people during their lives, often because they fail to plan at all or because they opt for a "cheap" and ineffective option that either ignores or poorly addresses inevitable lifetime issues.

Most news stories about estate planning relate to "who gets what" in a famous person's Will.
In reality, good estate planning is so much more than "who gets what" when someone dies, there are lifetime elements of the planning many people ignore until it's too late, often with painful and/or expensive consequences.
Estate planning done properly can prevent the mess created by many lifetime issues (incapacity, health problems, etc.) that we and our families go through well before we die, and can allow us to effectively think through both predictable and unpredictable outcomes to avoid courts, hassles, and devastating financial results.

Wills are legal documents that explain and direct how a person's assets are to pass when they die.
Wills also name a person "in charge" (in Colorado, called a "Personal Representative") to administer the estate, and may also name a guardian for minor children.
Wills may be simple or complex, but there is often confusion regarding what a Will can or can't do.
Wills, without other planning, do not avoid probate (a court process caused by having too many or the wrong type of assets) and have nothing to do with incapacity (lifetime issues).

A trust is a contract which allows a person or institution (a "trustee") to manage assets for the benefit of other people or institutions (the "beneficiaries").
There are many different types of trusts that serve a variety of purposes, but unfortunately there isn't typically one type of "super" trust that solves all issues a person might want to address.
This does not mean all issues cannot be addressed, it just may require combining strategies.
Taking care of a disabled child or other beneficiary who cannot/should not own assets outright.
