  • Smart and simple ways to pass along what matters most to your loved ones.
    • The essentials everyone should know about wills, trusts, and powers of attorney.
    • How to avoid common mistakes that can cause stress for families later on.

Attendees also had the chance to ask questions and get straightforward advice on how to take the next step in creating a plan that fits their family’s needs. The event aimed to make the often overwhelming world of estate planning feel more approachable and manageable.
