Above The Business

In today’s episode, Taylor Willingham joins Bradley to discuss the value of estate planning for entrepreneurs. Taylor brings a wealth of expertise and a deep commitment to legacy planning, and is himself a founder. Specializing in estate planning, probate, and elder law, his practice is dedicated to ensuring clients' assets are protected and passed on according to their wishes. Taylor's unique approach to estate planning, dubbed Posterity Planning, focuses on not just the transfer of assets, but on preserving wealth for future generations.

An accomplished author, Taylor has contributed significantly to the field with five published books:

• "Will Trust: Do I Need a Will or a Trust,"
• "Free Long Term Care,"
• "Helping Your Parent With Long Term Care,"
• "Why Should I Care, I'll Be Dead," and
• "Ituy: An Adventure to The End of World."

He also shares his rich background in estate law. In fact, his legal journey began at Tombs & Maxwell, PLLC in Lubbock, Texas, where he honed his skills as an estate planning and probate law clerk. His career took a pivotal turn in 2009 when he joined Davis & Associates, delving into international estate planning and business formation to assist global clients in investing and protecting assets within the United States.

Taylor's dedication to creating lasting legacies is matched by his extensive academic achievements, including a Master’s degree in Personal Finance and a Juris Doctorate. His expertise in planning techniques, asset protection, and wealth creation has been recognized through numerous awards and affiliations, such as being a Graduate of the Elder Law College, receiving the Best Attorney accolade from Living Magazine in 2015, and being a consistent Super Lawyers Association member from 2019 to 2023.
