Legacy - Your Life's Worth


We had a traditional Memorial Day, taking my daughter to the parade and having friends and family over for a cookout. One of the things I also enjoy with an extended weekend is an opportunity to read a good book. It seems no matter what I read I always find an Estate Planning moment. This time it was in Loving Frank - a fictional Frank Lloyd Wright love story.

One of the characters in the story owned a home sanctuary on a beautiful lake in Sweden. The home represented a culmination of her life's work and worth on women's empowerment in the early 1900s. It was her intent to make this sanctuary a kind of legacy upon her death. So she was having a will drafted up to accomplish that goal.

A legacy is a powerful testimony to one's life and one's work. However, it can not be done without proper planning. An estate planning attorney goes beyond merely your tangible assets but combines that with the intangible desires that you might have, your hopes and dreams for the future.

That is what we do best at my firm!! Send a comment or contact us at http://www.ythlaw.com/
