Here's something we wish more parents knew: Minor children can't directly receive life insurance payouts. If your kids are named as beneficiaries, a court may need to step in and appoint someone to manage the money, and your child could receive everything in one lump sum on their 18th birthday.
There's a better way. Naming a trust as your beneficiary lets you decide who manages those funds and when your children receive them, at ages and stages that make sense for your family.

September is National Preparedness Month, and most checklists stop at flashlights and bottled water. But real preparedness includes your people, too. If something unexpected happened to you, would your loved ones know who to call, where to find your documents, or what you'd want?

That's exactly what an estate plan answers. A will, a power of attorney, and a healthcare directive put your wishes in writing, clearly, so the people you love never have to guess.

If this month is your nudge to finally get it done, we'd be honored to walk you through it.

A theme runs through this article on inherited wealth: Structuring assets is only half the job. The other half is preparing the people who will inherit them. Heirs who understand the reasoning behind a plan are far better positioned to steward what they receive. That's true whether you're passing down a business or a family home. We can help you prepare your heirs, not just your documents.

The greatest wealth transfer is underway, and heirs who are set to inherit are preparing to use the money very differently from the generations that built it.

Because women tend to live longer than men, they're also more likely to need long-term care, and to need it last, often after a spouse's care has already drawn down shared savings. That makes planning ahead especially worthwhile. This article looks at why women face a distinct set of risks and how to prepare for them. We're glad to help you think through the legal side of a long-term care plan.

In addition to typically living longer than their husbands, women also are more likely to need long-term care, which can be costly.
