Estate Review

Estate planning is not something most of us look forward to, but it it is truly a gift to our family and loved ones to have our affairs in order. Emerick Financial Planning will work with you and your lawyer to make sure that your estate plan covers all the bases and is integrated with your overall financial plan.

• Refer you to an attorney when you need one, or work with your attorney if you already have one
• Compile data for your estate attorney and identify potential estate planning issues for your attorney's consideration
• Review estate plan to make sure it is integrated with your overall financial plan
