Are you prepared for the unexpected?

Times like these are a reminder that we never know what tomorrow might bring. You know you should have an estate plan in place. Maybe you’ve been putting it off. But is there anything more satisfying than taking care of your family?
Estate Planning is one of the most overlooked areas of personal financial management. It is estimated that more than half of American adults don’t have an estate plan, in part because many mistakenly believe that this process is for the wealthy or the retired. Estate planning is for everyone!
Every three to five years—or after a major life event (marriage, birth of a family member, divorce, death of a family member)—you should take stock of your investments, assets, and philanthropic distributions whether you have an existing estate plan or would like to start one.
