Marietta GA Estate Planning Lawyer suggests the Ultimate Gift of Love for your family: an up-to-date estate plan!
With budgets tight and uncertainty in the air, this Valentine's Day is the perfect time to give your loved one a priceless gift that never grows old — financial security.
Sure, you can't stuff it in a box or wrap it with a pretty bow, but taking the time to get your financial and legal affairs in order this month is the ultimate way to show your loved ones just how much you care now and for the future.
Think about what would happen if you were disabled, incapacitated, or passed away suddenly this year. That expensive night out you spent with your “special someone” won't do much to ensure he or she will continue to thrive in your absence. A less exciting, but meaningful gift of life insurance, for example, would have been a better expression of your love during hard times.
And, when is the last time you updated your will or trust? Are you certain that your wishes would be honored and your loved ones would be taken care of exactly as you want in an emergency? This includes minor children who, without legal guardians named for them by mom and dad, will be at the mercy of the courts.
Legal and financial planning is the ultimate way to demonstrate your love for your family where it counts the most. Make a commitment to not put it off any longer and use this Valentine's Day to give your loved ones the long-term financial security and peace of mind they deserve.
