About

Let's face it, almost nobody wants to talk about estate planning. We procrastinate. We make excuses. We don't want to do it. But there is that nagging voice that reminds you that you really should just get it done. And you know that if you get those "affairs in order," you'll sleep better. The voice gets louder every time you hear the horror stories about probate. But somehow the whole idea is about as much fun as planning a tooth extraction. It doesn't have to be like that. What if I told you that what we are doing is protecting your kids from being sued in a car accident? Or protecting them from a failed marriage? Or keeping your kids from fighting? Or helping design a plan for the charities where you already volunteer? Or maybe even taking care of Fido in the way that you've always pampered your furbaby? Yes, we do that. And it is all painless. Then your friend tells you that they just used a cheap or free online service to do their will. It's a little like pulling your own tooth. You could do it. But what if it gets infected? What if you break the tooth? What if you damage the nerve? Chances are, the expense and pain of the cleanup is more than if you'd have just made the appointment to let the professional do their job. That's why you hear the horror stories. We can protect you from that pain. As a long-time educator and counselor, I use very little "legal speak" (unless I am teaching it). I can even help spouses who don't necessarily agree find a plan that eases both their concerns. And I do this in a low-risk way with free workshops and consultations. So meet with me, ask your questions, and let me help you get this daunting task checked this off your list.
