Life Stage Estate Planning

In this webinar you will learn about the most commonly used estate planning documents and why they are important even at different stages of your life.

This is the second in a series of 4 estate planning webinars. It will cover some basics of the estate planning process but addressing the topic from the perspective of people who are doing their planning at different stages in their lives. The motivation and focus of an estate plan for a young couple with infant children is very different from an estate plan developed by someone in near retirement.
