Estate Planning for Families with Kids

A whopping 69% of parents do not have any protections in place for their kids if something happened to them. Of those that have, many have made one of the six common mistakes that could make those protections useless. Martha, a local mom and attorney, will help you understand:

•  How to make sure your children are never taken from your home and placed with strangers if something happens to you.
•  How to avoid the 6 most common mistakes parents make when naming a guardian.
•  How to make sure that your assets are immediately and privately available to your guardians.
•  How you can take control away from judges who don’t know you or your children.
•  How giving kids money can harm them and what to do instead.

Whether you’re single, married, in a same-sex or a blended family, she’ll help you craft an effective estate and child protection plan so that your loved ones are protected from unnecessary trauma in the event something happens to you. 

In contrast to average estate planning firms, Martha knows that the greatest gift you have to give your kids is YOU, your history, your wisdom, your lessons. She will help you develop a personal legacy plan that will make certain that your greatest gift—the gift of who you are—is passed to your children.

Please call today to schedule your Family Wealth Planning Session (a $750 value) for free. At this session, Martha will lead you through what would happen under your current plan or without a plan. And if you decide Martha can help you save your loved ones significant time and heartache by creating an effective estate plan, she will also take 10% off the plan you chose because you are a homeschooling family.
