A Personal Family Lawyer® firm is a trusted advisor who helps you make informed legal and financial decisions for your family. They provide ongoing support and have systems in place to assist your loved ones when you're not around.
Estate plans are essential if you have assets or loved ones. Without a plan, your family could face significant challenges and expenses. Planning helps protect what you care about, regardless of your wealth.
A will alone isn't enough. It's crucial to work with a lawyer to ensure your estate plan is comprehensive and effective. A lawyer can help avoid conflicts and ensure your wishes are followed.
While you can create a will online, it may not cover all your needs. Consulting a lawyer ensures your plan is thorough and legally sound, protecting your loved ones from potential issues.
If you have assets and loved ones, Life and Legacy Planning can help you leave a meaningful legacy. This process ensures your wishes are clear and your family is taken care of. Start with a consultation to see its value.
Having a trusted lawyer ensures you're prepared for life's changes and challenges. They offer ongoing support, helping you make informed decisions and providing peace of mind for you and your family.
I witnessed it firsthand after watching family members die without proper planning. The first was my father-in-law.
Even though my father-in-law worked with a reputable lawyer to prepare an “estate plan,” his assets were not inventoried, or even titled properly, and his plan had never been updated after he created it.
Turns out, my father-in-law had paid $3,000 for a one-size fits all plan that he thought took care of everything, but it didn’t. And he died not realizing that his loved ones would be stuck in a court process after his death, dealing with his assets, and his ex-wife.
It’s an all too common problem. Families get left with an expensive mess that could easily be avoided, with a little more foresight, understanding and the guidance of an advisor who has the mind of a lawyer, and the heart of a teacher.
That’s why I created Personal Family Lawyer®.
