Estate Planning


Course Description

There is a widespread misconception that "estate planning" is of importance only to the wealthy. The truth of the matter is every person (young or old) who has family or owns property needs an estate plan. Estate planning is more than making a plan in advance and naming a beneficiary to receive assets. A proper estate plan provides peace of mind and allows individuals to reach their desired economic, legal, and personal objectives.

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the estate planning process and includes the following sections:

Section I: The Basics of Estate Planning
