We Discuss: What's the difference between a will and a trust? What is probate? How can it be avoided? How do I find an attorney? What should I look for? How much does it cost to do a will or a trust? Are online wills okay? Legal? And much more! In this episode, I am having a conversation with Attorney David Harty, who specializes in Estate Planning.

The purpose of this episode is to discuss how we can best relate to our children in a way that they'll hear our hearts. Yes...they'll be a little venting too, after all, we're only human, but we want to find solutions that will benefit both us and our kids. Be sure to check out Episode #69.
