Free Workshop: Wills, Trusts, and Estate Planning: What You Need to Know
A will doesn't take effect on its own. It has to go through probate, which is a court process that takes time and costs money. That's the biggest surprise attorney Amy R. Wheatley sees when families sit down with her.
Join her for a free workshop that walks through all of it in plain language.
WHAT WE'LL COVER
What an estate plan actually is, and the documents that make one up
What a will does, and what it doesn't
What happens if you don't have a plan, and who decides then
How a trust works, and why it isn't only for the wealthy
The difference between a revocable trust and an asset protection trust
Planning ahead for long-term care
The three documents every adult should have, and why being married doesn't automatically give your spouse the authority to act for you
BRING WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE
If you have a will, a trust, or powers of attorney, bring them. Laws change and families change, and documents drawn up ten or fifteen years ago may not still say what you think they say. Amy will look yours over and tell you honestly whether they're still current.
WHO SHOULD COME
Anyone. You don't have to be a certain age, you don't have to own a business, and you don't have to know any of this already.
Come if you've never made a plan. Come if you have a will and didn't know it still means going to court. Come if you made a plan years ago and haven't looked at it since. Come if you're starting to think about long-term care for yourself or a parent. Come if you just have questions.
You don't need a big estate to need an estate plan. Everyone has one.
IS THIS A SALES PITCH?
No. It's an overview. Amy explains what these documents are and how they work. If what you learn makes you want to sit down and set something up, she'll tell you how. If it doesn't, you'll still leave knowing more than you came in with. Nothing gets decided in a room full of people.
