How to Create a Thoughtful, Organized Plan for Your Family's Future

Are you interested in estate planning? Maybe you're having trouble getting started because you're stuck in research mode or overwhelmed with the amount of information available?

That’s why we’re hosting How to Create a Thoughtful, Organized Plan for Your Family’s Future, a free educational workshop designed to provide you with the clarity and confidence you need to make informed decisions about your estate plan.

Many people assume estate planning is only about writing a will. In reality, a well-structured estate plan can help:

✔ Avoid probate and minimize unnecessary legal fees✔ Protect your assets and ensure they’re distributed according to your wishes✔ Prevent family conflict by providing clear instructions✔ Ensure financial and healthcare decisions are handled the way you want✔ Provide for your loved ones in a tax-efficient way

This workshop will help you understand your options and guide you toward a personalized plan that works for your specific needs and goals.

At this workshop, we’ll break down the estate planning process in easy-to-understand terms and provide real-life examples to illustrate how proper planning can make all the difference.

Estate planning isn’t just about what happens after you pass away—it’s about protecting yourself and your family during your lifetime as well. We’ll discuss:

• Why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work
• The biggest mistakes people make when planning their estate
• How to create a plan that aligns with your unique goals and values

There’s a lot of misinformation about estate planning, and many people don’t realize the impact of choosing the wrong approach. We’ll cover:

• The differences between a will and a trust—and when to use each
• How a trust can help your family avoid probate and gain immediate access to assets
• The role of powers of attorney and advance healthcare directives in protecting your wishes

Many well-intentioned decisions can backfire if not structured properly. We’ll go over:

• Why “simple wills” often won't acccomplish your goals unless you want the bare minimum for your family
• Common mistakes where people don't look far enough into the future
• Shortcuts that can result in disaster
