Estate planning sounds complex and expensive - but it doesn’t have to be. A few simple steps now can save your family a world of stress later. In this webinar, we’ll cover estate planning essentials related to wills & trusts, powers of attorney, guardianship plans, and business continuity documents. We’ll also talk about planning for a variety of situations so that if the worst happens, you’ll know your family and business are taken care of.
