About this Event
Wondering what actually happens to your family, your home, or your assets if something happens to you? Join local attorney David Bernard of Precision Law Group for a free, plain-English session on the three documents most Louisiana families need and don't have: a will, a trust, and a power of attorney.
You'll learn what each document actually does, when you need one versus another, and how Louisiana's succession and forced heirship laws make this state different from the other 49. Whether you're just starting to think about estate planning or want to know if your existing plan actually holds up, you'll leave with a clear, practical picture — no legal jargon, no pressure.
Time is set aside at the end for general questions.
