Now is a good time to consider planning for the upcoming year and getting a headstart on 2015.
Our guest speaks with us about a heavy topic, but an important one. It is a topic that many people put off and delay addressing because it requires us to reflect upon a time in our life that we don’t put too much emphasis upon – the end of our lives. And this is for certain we each will be facing at some point along our journey. So, why not plan for it, so that what you leave behind will be organized and easier for your loved ones.
This topic is important to Melanie Schanker, Esq. because too many times she has seen clients who come into her offices and it’s simply too late. Too late for them or their loved ones to create a Will because of many reasons including the lack of capacity to make such decisions and sign a Last Will and Testament.
So give yourself the gift of 20 minutes this week, to learn something about this topic and give yourself and your family this gift, they will appreciate it and you that much more.
Learn about the importance of planning while you still can in this audio now.
During this interview you will learn:
– What happens if you die without a Will, in New York
• The key benefits to having an Estate plan (and it’s not just about giving

• And more!
