If something happened to you tomorrow, would your family be able to grieve privately – or would they be forced into courtrooms, paperwork, and delays?
Most families assume a will is enough. Many are shocked to learn that a will often guarantees probate, rather than avoids it.
This free educational webinar from Heights Law Group explains how modern estate planning tools can protect your loved ones from unnecessary court involvement, public records, and financial stress—so they can focus on being a family when it matters most.
Probate is often described as a lawsuit you file against yourself – paid for by your family’s inheritance.
If you rely on a basic will (or have no plan at all), your loved ones may face:
Frozen accounts
Bank accounts can be inaccessible for months, even for everyday expenses.
Loss of privacy
Probate is public. Anyone can see what you owned and who receives it.
Unnecessary costs
Court fees and legal expenses reduce what you intended to leave behind.
Lengthy delays
Families spend months navigating paperwork instead of healing together.
The good news: much of this can be avoided with the right planning.
In this one-hour session, you will learn how families legally and ethically avoid probate – without cutting corners or relying on outdated strategies. We will cover:
Why wills lead to court - and how trusts keep things private.
Common assumptions that unintentionally force probate.
The legal tools every adult should understand.
And how to fix them before it is too late.
