the most rewarding thing that I found in

the estate planning practice is the

comfort and peace of mind that I’m able

to provide my clients and putting

together an estate plan so when you have

a proper estate plan in place you’re

able to take care of your loved ones

after you pass away make sure your

property passes according to your wishes

and you’re able to generally achieve tax

planning objectives so this provides not

only my clients with a great deal of

peace of mind but it’s also easing the

burden on their family members who are

left behind knowing that their family

members had planned

ahead one piece of advice that I

frequently give to clients is not to do

their own legal work so what I found

over the years is that when people cut

Corners they try to use use online tools

or forms that they find a mistake is

pretty much always made and so this

could be something as simple as failing

to execute a beneficiary designation you

may fail to provide for minor

beneficiaries disabled beneficiaries or

achieve your tax planning objectives so

what I tell clients is to put an estate

plan in place is a really worthwhile

investment not only for you but for your

family members as well because when

these mistakes are made you are creating

additional administrative Hassle and

expense for family after you’re gone
