🎉 This year my birthday felt different as I got to spend more blessed uninterrupted time with my little family. And I wouldn’t have it any other way❣️

This is what I tell clients all the time when walking through their estate planning - because the plan that we customize for each family is about leaving a family legacy❣️

Planning = preparing ourselves now so that our loved ones can help us while we’re alive + also to continue our family’s legacy after we pass. ⭐️

We plan now for our family’s future❣️

Be the hero of your family & let’s get planning today 🦸‍♀️

🎓 Thinking About Your Child’s Future?

Let’s Talk 529 Education Savings Plans in honor of today being National 529 Day! 🎓

As an attorney—and a parent—I know how important it is to plan ahead for our children’s education. 📚

One tool out there is the 529 Education Savings Plan. Here’s why families should consider one:

✅ Tax Advantages: Your savings grow tax-free, & withdrawals for qualified education expenses (like tuition, books, & even some K-12 costs) are also tax-free!

✅ Flexibility: 529 plans can be used at most colleges, universities, & even some international institutions. They can also be used for vocational schools & apprenticeship programs.

✅ Control: You stay in charge of the account, & if your child doesn’t use the funds, you can transfer them to another family member.

✅ Estate Planning Benefits: Contributions can reduce your taxable estate, making this a win-win for your family’s financial future.

Investing in a 529 plan is a powerful way to give your child the gift of education—& peace of mind for yourself.

📲Contact us today if you have questions about how a 529 plan can fit into your family’s estate planning, we’re here to help!

🙋 Do you have aging parents?

Oftentimes I hear from adults that their aging parents are hesitant to plan for their future becuase their parents are afraid that legal documents:

🔅 Will restrict their financial & daily independence -
❇️ Reality: a plan will clearify any issues of control & empower parents to live life on their own terms;

🔅 Mean their children see them as only a payout -
❇️ Reality: their children are searching for guidance for the future.

✅ When planning is done right - this planning creates tools of stability 🧰 that bring your family closer by establishing a plan that the whole family can understand & be a part of. 🪢

🙋‍♀️ I've personally experienced that parents feel more prepared, & their children are less stressed knowing that there is a family plan in place should something happen to their parents.
