Basic Estate Planning (in just five minutes)

What do we mean when we talk about estate planning? Well, there's a lot that it entails, and to get into everything in depth, it takes a lot longer than just five minutes. But, in this clip from a virtual happy hour event event from November 18, 2020, Attorney Jenna Franks gives a short version of what we're generally talking about when we refer to estate planning. Jenna gives a few tips on what is most important to be aware of regarding Wills and Powers of Attorney, and also gives a tip about an unconventional place that some people keep their actual legal documents if they don't have a fireproof safe.  She also offers advice about making sure adult children or another appointed person is aware about where documents and assets are located, even if you don't want to share too specific information about assets. If you're interested in hearing a longer and much more detailed and in depth podcast about estate planning, check out episode 40, titled "Basics of Estate Planning," featuring Attorney Julie Steinbacher.
