Traditional holiday greetings:

Almost missed it! National Estate Planning Awareness Week takes place October 19-25, 2020. This week was established to help the public understand what estate planning is and why it is such a vital component of financial wellness. The main goal is to educate the public. Let me remind you about some common myths and misconceptions: "I'm too young to do estate planning." "My estate isn't big enough to need planning" "I can create a will on my own."... "All my property is titled in joint tenancy with my spouse so I don't need a will or a trust." "Estate planning is only for the super-rich." "Estate planning is too complicated and expensive." "Doesn't the government provide for that?" "Once a plan is in place, I'm done." If this is what you think about having any of the documents listed on this flyer, you may want to go to my website and schedule a free 20-minute consultation: https://www.kristaltrustlaw.com/contact-1 Let me know what else I can do to educate the community.
