💔 A Mother’s Heartbreak Turned Mission—Estate Planning Lessons You Need to Hear
Mary Ann Wehr never planned on becoming an estate planning attorney. But when her 33-year-old son, James, a firefighter and paramedic, died in the line of duty, she was thrust into a legal nightmare.

Mary Ann saw firsthand how bad estate planning (or no planning at all) can devastate families.
That’s why she made it her mission to help families avoid this nightmare.
🎧 In my latest podcast episode, Mary Ann shares:
✔️ The painful reality of what happens when estate planning fails
✔️ The biggest mistakes families make—and how to avoid them
✔️ The one step you can take TODAY to protect your loved ones
