Planning during tough times

When you or a loved one is diagnosed with a serious illness, it makes sense to keep in close contact with a doctor. But what about your attorney? 

While it may not be the most pressing issue, a little bit of planning can save you and your family a lot of headache. There are a number of things your attorney can help during terminal illness. And while optimism is always important, it doesn’t hurt to prepare for a transition. 

Estate planning documents might be updated and changed.  Beneficiary designations might be explored as appropriate.  If real estate is involved, creating a life estate deed might be very useful.  All of these things can save thousands of dollars and make the transition less stressful on the family.

They will be grateful.
