<p>I think you need to try another attorney. With multiple properties you definitely need estate planning. You may also want to look at incorporating as it may provide some tax benefits. We set up a trust and there were all kinds of issues I hadn’t thought of that our attorney did.<br>
You may have the right idea to put it on the back burner for a short time and try to look at your assets and whether you want to consolidate things before you do anything. Just don’t wait too long. It could be very complicated for your children if they have to untangle your estate.</p>
