The Coronavirus and Estate Planning – Has Anything Changed?
The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus has led to unprecedented actions, quaratines, closing of restaurants, limited gathering of people, and given us new phrases.

How to Effectively Talk To Your Kids About Your Estate Plan
I know that talking to your kids about your estate plan is probably not high on your priority list.
