No one likes talking about death and inheritances before they have to, but as I have learned from personal experience, having these conversations earlier, rather than later, will save a lot of time and money, alleviate a ton of stress and ill feelings, and ensure that the deceased’s wishes are properly and efficiently carried out.
I am not just an expert, I'm someone who knows this topic inside and out from personal experience, having spent seven years and $50,000 in lawyer fees to come to an agreement with my siblings over my parents’ estate.
And that was with a written will!
The grief, frustration, and stress of that experience were life-altering for me. I am determined to help others successfully navigate the difficult tasks of estate, legacy planning, and executorship—so that families can stay together, rather than fall apart.
