The Importance of Estate Planning

Webinar

Feb 02, 2021 / 01:00PM - 02:00PM EST

Event Description

Talking about Estate Planning, Last Wills and Testaments, and Power of Attorney isn't exactly something to discuss over the dinner table. In fact, many of us wait until a major crisis in order to take care of really important financial manners. Others think that you have to be rich in order to create an Estate Plan. Still, others just lack the knowledge necessary to make these important decisions. We want to help you make sure you have your wishes in order. We want to help you plan for how you want things to go before and after your death. Who will make decisions on your behalf? Join us and explore the basic things that you can do to protect yourself and your family.
