In the world of estate planning, thoughts always turn to the security of the family.

The news spread fast.

 

A friend with a wife and young children was suddenly killed in an accident.

 

Thoughts of many in the community immediately turned to the family. 

 

This type of fact situation has replayed many times in communities across America. Only the names change.

 

In the world of estate planning, thoughts always turn to the security of that family. Was there life insurance? A financial plan? What about a pourover Will and Family Trust? Is the education of the children secured?

 

Many times, the Estate Plan is not in place. 

 

Rules of state statutes kick in and direct the disposition of assets. 

 

A grieving widow (or widower) is left to make decisions in a time of great grief and vulnerability - instead of having a roadmap in place for handling these matters.

 

Estate Planning is a difficult subject to consider because it is a full-face reflection of our own mortality. 

 

However, failure to plan is planning to fail. Development of an Estate Plan eases the burden of decision-making by a grieving survivor. Clarity is substituted for confusion and potential conflict.

 

In many ways, an Estate Plan is a final gift to your survivors, providing the necessary direction when tragedy comes.

 

This is not easy to think about, but that’s why a caring, sensitive Attorney can play such a vital role in helping you through the plan.
