Does the thought of estate planning give you heart palpitations? You’re not alone. No one wants to think about what happens when we’re gone, especially when it comes to who will take care of our kids (and how). Former estate attorney and current Assistant Attorney General Brianna Davidson Jarrett will gently show us why estate planning doesn’t need to feel impossible to tackle, and why we absolutely have to do it. She’ll cover the most important steps to take and what questions to ask your attorney so you can walk out knowing exactly what you need to do and feel in control.
(If you can't attend our live event, RSVP anyway to be added to our email list where we'll send a recording of the discussion along with a recap of the highlights!)
