Preserving Your Life Stories

SCLG2

This guest blog was written by Peter from South County Law Group. Peter helped us with our estate planning awhile back. We loved working with him – click here to read about our experience.

As part of his estate planning process, he records an interview where parents get to talk about their beliefs, values and how they would like their children raised for the guardians named. To me, this was priceless and something that can be passed on down to future generations.

Is a Will Enough?

Expert Advice from the Morgan Law Group:

“It’s incredible to believe, but 74% of parents don’t have a Will and even those who do still risk their children being taken from their home, at least temporarily, if they are injured or die.
