10 Jun 2021How Planning Your Estate Can Ease Your Grief01:03:04

We're back for Season 3! 

On this episode I had the pleasure of having a conversation with Stephanie Anderson of The Anderson Law Practice, LLC. The Anderson Law Practice, LLC, is a boutique Atlanta law firm in Buckhead focusing exclusively on legacy creation, asset protection and the efficient transfer of generational wealth. 

After experiencing first-hand how the lack of planning can impact a family, Stephanie decided to transition her practice from helping people when there is a problem, to helping them avoid problems altogether. She opened this practice because of the love she has for her family and enjoys working with people who have those same values.

The majority of her practice is helping families plan for the future, but Stephanie's unique background arms her with the confidence and knowledge to move forward with litigation and representing individuals in court, if necessary. This background is helpful for clients when it comes to probate matters. She understands that sometimes probate cases can become difficult and believes an attorney should be capable of helping clients if things take a turn for the worse.

In this episode we discuss:

+ What Estate Planning is and why it is important

+ How having an estate plan can help ease the grieving process for your family once you are gone

+ How simple it is to set up an estate plan

+ Some tips when it comes to setting up your estate plan
