The Core Problem

Most estate plans fail in execution, not drafting.

Documents get signed. Assets stay put. Beneficiaries go stale. The trust sits in a drawer — legally valid and functionally useless.

What most families end up with

A signed trust that holds no assets. A will nobody can find. Real estate still titled in their own names. Beneficiary designations last updated in 2009.

  • Estate goes to probate anyway
  • Family spends months untangling accounts
  • Minor children's guardianship unaddressed
  • Incapacity triggers costly court proceedings
  • Plan never funded — the whole point missed

What a functioning plan looks like

Correctly executed documents. Real estate retitled and recorded. Accounts aligned. Beneficiary designations reviewed and current.

  • Assets pass privately, without probate
  • Family receives what you intended
  • Successor trustee steps in without court
  • Medical and financial decisions covered
  • Documented, verified, and complete

About Keith Plummer

Estate planning the way it should work.

Anchor Advisors North started the same way most families begin thinking about estate planning — a question from parents and close friends who wanted a simple plan that would work, but found the process expensive, confusing, and hard to navigate.

After seeing the gap between what most Michiana households actually need and what they're often sold, the answer became clear: most families need a well-drafted trust, the right companion documents, and someone who will make sure the plan is actually implemented — not just filed.
