✅ Yesterday we told you the risk. Today, let's talk about the fix.

If you're an unmarried couple, these 5 documents are your legal safety net:

1. Will — directs who gets what (spoiler: it won't automatically be your partner)
2. Durable Power of Attorney — lets your partner manage finances if you can't
3. Healthcare Proxy / Medical POA — so they can make decisions when it matters most
4. Beneficiary Designations — update your 401(k), IRA, and life insurance NOW
5. Cohabitation Agreement — protects shared property and finances

☀️ This summer, protect what you've built together.

One conversation with an estate planning attorney could be the most important thing you do as a couple this year.

💑 You've built a life together. But the law doesn't see it that way.

If you're not married, your partner has zero automatic legal right to your assets, your home, or your accounts — no matter how long you've been together.

Here's what happens without a plan:
❌ Your home could go to a sibling they've never met
❌ They can't make medical decisions for you
❌ Joint bank accounts? Contested.
❌ Years of shared finances — unprotected

Summer is the season for new beginnings. If you and your partner are building a life together, don't leave your future to chance.

📝 A few key documents can change everything. We'll tell you exactly which ones tomorrow.

The Big Beautiful Bill raised the estate tax exemption to $15 million per person.
But in Louisiana? Federal law doesn't override everything. ⚜️

✅ Community property stepped-up basis — maximize it now
✅ Dynasty trusts just got supercharged
⚠️ Forced heirship still applies — NO exemption changes that
⚠️ GST exemption is NOT portable — you need the right structure

Your trust was written under different rules. Time to review it.

🔥Louisiana heat doesn't play. Neither does a bad estate plan.

If something happened to you this summer, would your family be protected?
Louisiana's forced heirship laws and community property rules mean a generic will just won't cut it.

This summer, give your family something better than sunscreen — give them peace of mind.⛱

Can You Disinherit a Child? 🤔

If you're wondering whether it's possible to disinherit a child in Louisiana, the answer depends on several factors — especially their age and whether they're considered a "forced heir" under Louisiana law.

📜 In Louisiana, children under 24 or those of any age who are permanently disabled may be entitled to a portion of your estate, even if you try to leave them out of your will. This is known as forced heirship, a unique part of Louisiana's civil law system.

Thinking about your estate plan or updating your will? 📝 It's important to know your rights — and your limitations — under Louisiana succession laws.

👩‍⚖️ Have questions about forced heirship or disinheriting a child? Contact us at Progeny Law Firm for guidance tailored to your family’s needs. (225) 465-1090

🎉 Fun Fact Friday

Did you know a fully developed hurricane can release more energy in a single day than hundreds of thousands of atomic bombs? 🌪️

Which is impressive...

But not nearly as impressive as a Louisiana family preparing for hurricane season.

Within 24 hours, we can:

✔ Buy enough snacks to survive until Mardi Gras
✔ Fill every gas can within a 20-mile radius
✔ Clear the bread aisle completely
✔ Convince ourselves we absolutely need a generator the size of a small power plant 😄

And somehow, every storm still leaves us asking:

"Did anybody freeze the gumbo?"

Happy Friday, Baton Rouge!

May your hurricane supplies stay organized, your freezer stay cold, and your weather apps stay boring. ❤️
