Blended Families

You love your family.

You want to ensure things are as easy as possible for them if and when something happens to you.

Here is the really important part though: If you are a blended family and either you or your spouse have children and grandchildren from a prior marriage, there is no way around it – you must plan ahead to keep the people you love out of conflict.

No matter how close or friendly you think your spouse and their step-children and step-grandchildren are, there is simply an unavoidable and inherent conflict among them upon your death.  Plus, you risk the unintended consequence of your family treasures going to the children and grandchildren belonging to the spouse that outlives the other spouse.

The great news is that this conflict and unintended consequence can be mitigated, and you can ensure that the people you love most will all be well taken care of with the most ease possible.

You can take action in advance to support them to be on the same team in a time of grief, if and when something happens to you.

But it doesn’t happen like magic.

With education, information and a personalized trust planning session, you can curate an estate plan for your unique family dynamics, so everyone is on the same page, protected, and prepared when something happens to you.
