The TOP 10 Estate Planning Misunderstandings


Adult / Finance -
2025-2026 CE School Year

One of the most dangerous misunderstandings of Estate Planning is the belief that all you need is a WILL (not true). Another common myth is that WILLs take care of everything and avoid Probate (hint: they don’t). If you have struggled with understanding the difference between Wills and Trusts, Healthcare Directives and Power of Attorney forms, you are not alone. 

In this one-hour educational program, you will finally understand the difference between these and other estate planning documents (what you need and what you don’t), while also learning to avoid the most common and costly mistakes. When it comes to the topic of Estate Planning, some people think they're an expert, but few actually are. To ensure things go smoothly for your loved ones during a time of loss and confusion, you must be aware of these false assumptions and costly misunderstandings. Don’t let a MESS be your legacy. Come join us for a relaxed but thorough discussion on these and other estate planning fundamentals. 

This 90-minute workshop will be followed by a Q&A session.
