Free Estate Planning Seminar | West Mobile

Most people know they should have an estate plan, but few could explain what that actually means. This free evening seminar breaks down how wills, trusts, and probate actually work in Alabama, and what happens if you don't have a plan in place. The seminar is led personally by attorney Mark Eiland, drawing on more than 25 years of hands-on experience in estate planning and trust administration.

At this seminar, you'll learn:

• What happens in Alabama if you die without a will
• Who has the legal authority to make decisions for you if you become incapacitated
• The difference between a will and a trust, and when each one makes sense
• How probate works in Alabama and how to avoid unnecessary court involvement
• Why beneficiary designations can override the rest of your plan
• What most families get wrong, and how to avoid it

This seminar is for anyone who has people they care about and something to protect. You do not need a lot of assets, and you do not need to have everything figured out.
