Avoid costly estate problems.

Life is busy and to be honest, no one really wants to think about death or incapacity ... BUT ... avoidance of the topic can lead to significant problems for those you leave behind. Without an estate plan, your assets can be frozen (including bank accounts) and the courts will often decide who gets your assets, a process that can take years, rack up fees, and can get very messy.  Everyone, regardless of family dynamics or financial status, can benefit from having an proper plan. 

We will be hosting a 1 hour, interactive seminar discusses proper financial planning, Wills, executors, enduring powers of attorney, and health care directives. It will cover what each of the documents are for, why you need them, and how to avoid problems such as family disputes, lawsuits, and excessive taxation.

Participants will leave with a checklist of things that they will need to consider when moving forward to have a Will written or amended. Family members encouraged to attend.

As a business owner, your phone is constantly ringing, your lunches are almost always business-related and you likely built your company from the ground up. If you don’t have a specific plan for exiting your business, you’re in the majority. Having a succession plan can help offset the impact of taxes and other costs, and can also mitigate risks like the loss of wealth due to taxes. Using tax-advantaged strategies like an IPP, RCA, insured retirement plan, or a buy-sell arrangement can provide a smooth transfer of wealth.

There are many options for exiting your business. You can become a co-owner, sell your entire business to a key employee or to an outside party or pass the business down to a trusted family member. Whatever route you decide, having a plan can provide clear insight into who will run the business in your absence. It can also help avoid unnecessary headaches and guessing games in the event of an unexpected illness or passing.

In this 1 hour seminar, we will discuss the options you have as an owner of some options that you can start setting up now to help fund and protect your retirement plans.
