The Divorce and Beyond® Podcast with Susan Guthrie, Esq.
Education:Self-Improvement
The wedding vows say "'til death do us part" but divorce changes everything and that means everything has to change - including your estate planning! In this week's episode, Susan Guthrie speaks with Attorney Rebecca Wallenfelsz, leading Trusts & Estates Attorney, about all of the issues and factors that are affected when the marital relationship ends.
Estate planning includes your Last Will & Testament and those decisions about who gets all your stuff after you die, but there is so much more involved in pulling together a proper plan and not all of it is just about what happens when you die. Attorney Rebecca Wallenfelsz has been helping individuals and families to structure their estate planning for almost 25 years and she shares all of the many factors that go into an all-inclusive plan, including disability, guardianship, healthcare matters and yes, who will get your estate when you pass away. Whether you have a plan in place already, or have never created an estate plan, it is all upended when there is a divorce and there are critical actions to take both DURING the divorce and AFTER! This is a must listen episode for everyone who is contemplating divorce, is going through divorce or who has recently finalized their divorce. LISTEN TODAY!
