Questions & Answers
Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
We helped a Grandmother set up her Legacy Estate Plan. After we completed her estate plan, she told me that she had total peace of mind now knowing that her grandchildren would be taken care of and she was helping to protect the ones she loved. When we told her that part of or comprehensive estate planning process was organizing a Legacy Interview (if the was interested) where we would ask her some questions on her life, and family values she wanted to pass down to her over ones and video record her responses for her loved ones in the future, she began to cry and said she had always wanted to do something like that and thanked us for making it happen.
