What happens to your kids if you don't have a plan? ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Without a will, an Illinois judge โ€” not your family โ€” decides who raises your children. And at 18, they inherit everything at once. No guidance. No conditions.

One document changes everything. Name your guardian. Protect your kids.

When your child turns 18, you lose the legal right to make medical and financial decisions for them โ€” even in an emergency. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Make sure they have a Healthcare POA and Financial POA in place before heading to college.
