Estate planning is the act of preparing for the transfer of a person’s wealth and assets after his or her death. Assets, life insurance, pensions, real estate, cars, personal belongings and debts are all part of one’s estate. Having a comprehensive estate plan in place for yourself or a loved one ensures family members are protected.
On this webinar, attendees will learn:
• Critical estate planning tools that every individual must use
• The importance of each document and how it works
• State and federal estate taxes
• Long-term care issues and solutions
• Next steps to prepare for the future and protect loved ones
