CCA November Lunch & Learn | Estate Planning: Documents Everyone Should Have (Online)

Regardless of your age, it is essential to get your legal affairs in order. The older we get, the more pressing it is to take care of these tasks that many people keep postponing for “one day soon.” Days can turn into years, and this necessary business often never gets done – leaving bereaved families to deal with much more than heartache. Simply beginning the process can be confusing and overwhelming to many people, contributing to the avoidance of this serious business. So come build a foundational understanding of the basics of the whole process with a lawyer that specializes in helping people make these plans! Explore the probate process, the differences between wills and trusts, between durable and statutory powers of attorney, between warranty and ladybird deeds, and more. This workshop may be the nudge you need to get the ball rolling!
