Unfortunately, blended families are also especially vulnerable to estate disputes and some of the ugliest challenges we have witnessed stem from a blended family without a proper estate plan in place.
From incomplete or DIY documents to old and outdated, many problems can arise if you do not have a complete and up-to-date plan for your unique circumstances.
If you are part of this growing majority of blended families, creating a comprehensive estate plan is a MUST. Put it on the top of the list and get it done. You can do this!
Your loved ones will thank you and your mind will be at peace!
