Episode 50: Navigating the Legal Minefield: The Risks of DIY Estate Planning
Are you aware of the significant risks in using do-it-yourself legal kits and non-attorneys or non-specialist attorneys for estate planning?
Each state has its own rules for preparing wills, powers of attorney, advanced health care directives, etc. Standard forms sold nationwide simply cannot meet all the different requirements of different states—and that can have devastating consequences for your health care and financial interests.
But DIY kits are only part of the problem. There are many reasons why it is best to invest in a certified elder law attorney specializing in estate planning so that you can avoid costly mistakes and protect your family's future.
