Maps help us get where we are going. Nowadays, phone apps provide detailed directions, making it nearly impossible to get lost. A physical map may seem outdated, but in an emergency, it can be a lifesaver.

An estate plan without a “road map” leaves your loved ones guessing what exists and where important things are located. The information exists, but without clear guidance, they may struggle to find what they need and risk unnecessary stress or delays.
To keep your estate plan on track, you need an estate road map that shows your loved ones where to go and what to do, with regular updates to keep it accurate. Attorney Longtin discusses your most important road map here...https://youtu.be/dHZVKh_-eH4

WORLD ELDER ABUSE AWARENESS DAY - “Elder abuse includes physical abuse, emotional/psychological abuse, sexual abuse, financial exploitation, neglect, and abandonment. Perpetrators include children, other family members, and spouses—as well as staff at nursing homes, assisted living, and other facilities.” - Center for Disease Control & Prevention

How can elder abuse be prevented?
It’s important to remember that elder abuse can happen to anyone. Educating older adults, professionals, caregivers, and the public on abuse is critical to prevention.

After all the turmoil of a divorce, the last thing you probably want to hear, is a recommendation to schedule yet more meetings with an attorney. But because you have just gone through a major life change, it is essential that you meet with an estate planning attorney. Here's just a few reasons why:

- You may have designated your ex-spouse as beneficiary on policies or accounts;
- You may have designated your ex-spouse as Executor or Trustee of your estate;
- Division of assets has made exisiting estate plans out of date and need to be revised;
- If you had a joint estate plan, you and your ex-spouse may have decided on gifts to extended family or charitable entities that you may no longer want carried out;
- You may still have your ex-spouse in charge of your medical decisions;
- You may still have your ex-spouse named under your Power of Attorney to deal with your finances?

It's easy to think of divorce as cutting ties with the past. But you will benefit the most, if you also plan for the future!

A pot trust is a way to hold money and property for a group of beneficiaries, usually children or other family members, in one shared trust. Instead of dividing everything into separate shares right away, the assets stay together in a single fund, allowing the trustee (the person in charge of managing the trust) to use the funds based on each beneficiary’s needs and the instructions in the trust.

Attorney Longtin discusses the advantages and disadvantages of a pot trust and how it would work for you and your beneficiaries https://youtu.be/3kRdfogEMfE
