Estate Planning Law Group of Georgia, James M. Miskell PC At my law offices in John's Creek Georgia, I assist clients in a wide range of estate planning needs. At our firm, education is a priority.

It is our goal to ensure that you have an in-depth understanding of your options before you make any decisions. Our workshops, led by attorney Jim Miskell, provide an opportunity for you — and your financial adviser — to learn the answers to commonly asked estate planning questions about wills, trusts, Medicaid planning and other important topics. After you attend a workshop, we can help you determine which estate planning tools will be most useful in accomplishing your goals. Those who attend a workshop receive a free initial consultation to discuss their estate planning needs.

September ends today, which means there are only three months left in the year. 😳

If "get the estate plan done" has been living on your to-do list since January, here's the honest truth: the last quarter of the year fills up fast. Holidays, travel, year-end everything.

The people who finish their plans before the holidays? They started in the fall.

👉 Reach out to our team today and check the big one off the list before the year runs out.

The families who keep wealth together for generations tend to have one habit in common: they talk about it. 🗣️

Not every number. Not every detail. But the important things — who's in charge, what the plan is, what the family values are, and why the plan looks the way it does.

A family meeting (yes, an actual scheduled one) can prevent decades of confusion and conflict. Surprises after a funeral rarely go well.

👉 Not sure how to start that conversation? Our team can help you structure it. Reach out today.

Medicare Open Enrollment starts October 15. 📅

That may feel far away, but the smartest thing seniors can do is start reviewing now — not in a rush later.

Plans change every year. Premiums shift, drug coverage gets updated, and provider networks get reshuffled. The plan that worked perfectly last year might quietly cost you more this year.

A little homework in September makes for much better decisions in October.

A big thank you to Arbor Terrace Hamilton Mill for inviting us to speak about estate planning and owning your legacy at happy hour! 🥂

We loved connecting with everyone, getting to know your community, and having meaningful conversations about planning for the future and protecting what matters most.

Aretha Franklin had an estate worth an estimated $80 million.

What she didn't have? A clear, formal estate plan. 🎹

After her passing, multiple handwritten wills were discovered — including one found in a spiral notebook under her couch cushions. What followed was years of litigation, family conflict, and a court battle over which document counted.

The Queen of Soul's legacy deserved better than a couch-cushion will.

The lesson: it's not just about writing your wishes down. It's about doing it properly, so there's no room for doubt.

👉 Reach out to our team today to make your wishes official.

Planning for a loved one with a disability? An ABLE account might belong in the conversation. 💙

ABLE accounts let individuals with disabilities save and invest money — often without jeopardizing needs-based benefits like SSI and Medicaid, up to certain limits.

They work alongside (not instead of) tools like Special Needs Trusts. Together, they can create both flexibility and long-term protection.

🍂 Fill in the blank:

My favorite fall tradition is ___________.

Football Sundays? Apple picking? That first fire in the fireplace? We want to hear it. 👇

Every family has one person who "knows where everything is." 😅

The passwords. The paperwork. The safe combination. Which drawer has the insurance stuff?

Quick question: what's the backup plan if something happens to that person? 👀

(Yes, this is your sign to write it down.)

👉 We can help you turn "it's all in my head" into an actual plan.

Your home is probably your biggest asset. How it's titled matters more than most people realize. 🏡

Joint ownership, transfer-on-death deeds, life estates, trusts — different states offer different tools, and each one changes what happens to your home when you pass away (and how protected it is before then).

Get the titling right, and your home can pass smoothly to the people you choose. Get it wrong, and it may end up in probate — or exposed to risks you never intended.

👉 Reach out to our team today to review how your home is titled.

Who gets Grandma's ring? 💍

It's rarely the house or the bank account that causes the biggest family arguments. It's the sentimental things: jewelry, photo albums, the fishing gear, the recipe box.

Many states allow a personal property memorandum — a simple list, referenced in your will, that spells out exactly who receives specific personal items.

Small document. Big peacekeeping power.

👉 Reach out to our team today to make sure the little things are covered too.
