| | Estate planning attorney Matt Shafae will walk us through the estate planning landscape, discussing wills, trusts, powers of attorney, the probate process, and some basic tax concepts. The program will have three main focuses: planning for families with young children, how to review an existing estate plan, and an explanation of the Prop 19 tax scheme. The presentation will be followed by a question and answer period. Whether you have small children, aging parents, preparing for retirement, or want to protect your life's work, join us to learn why everyone needs a current, comprehensive estate plan.
