4:00pm to 5:00pmEveryone leaves a legacy. How will you be remembered? How do you want to be remembered? Have you documented your wishes for your loved ones? It transcends finances, but that is a part of the process – whether you have significant resources or not. At its core, your legacy is about the lasting mark you leave after you are gone.
It can be overwhelming to know where to start. But doing so can be a gift you leave for your family, as well as the way you continue to transmit your values.
Join JFS and Bellevue-based attorney Janet Gray, who specializes in estate planning, to learn how and why you can plan your legacy – regardless of the resources you may have at your disposal.
