One of Fawcett & Fawcett’s foremost goals is to sufficiently inform the public about the elements of planning, and confronting issues of aging in place, or serving your parents as one of the “sandwich generation”. Avoiding probate, is something that can be avoided by having a legal signed will and essential to assure your spouse or family has money for living and bills until your state is settled. This video titled, “Avoiding Probate” by Kenney F. Hegland, a lawyer and elder law professor at the University of Arizona sheds some further light on probate.
His website, www.heglandlaw.com also provides a number of other short videos (they are all free although donations are said to be welcome). To view “Avoiding Probate” click FREE ELDER LAW VIDEOS on his website menu, download the video clip, and open on your browser.
We concur with Hegland’s assessment that “Like so many of us, they assumed that tomorrow would be like today. It won’t be. With the information provided ….seniors and their families will, quite simply, lead happier, less stressful lives.”
