Most popular: Childrens’ Emergency Protection Plan (CHERP™) ESTATE PLANNING FOR PARENTS
STILL NOT DONE? YOU’RE NOT ALONE.
A whopping 69% of parents have no protections in place for their kids if something happened to them. Of those that have, many have made one of the seven common mistakes that could make those protections useless. At our workshops, we share:
• Why it’s CRITICAL that you name guardians for your children
• What are the REAL issues you should be concerned about and what you don’t need to worry about
• What are the MYTHS of estate planning and the TRUTHS
• Why keeping your family out of COURT is essential
• How to TAKE CONTROL over your family’s legal and financial life and keep it that way
• Why getting the estate planning project done is LIFE GIVING to you as a parent
• Find out what is keeping you from the PEACE OF MIND you seek with planning
Whether single, married, in a same-sex or blended family, our workshops help parents face their fears of dying and get an effective estate and child protection plan in place so they can LET IT GO!
