Scott Welch Bio
Planning Kills Anxiety!. We spend a lot of time educating and helping our clients plan tailored estate strategies.. First, We begin with education. Explaining in plain English, or as close as we can, the various tools and resources we'll use to design a plan. With the goal of giving you enough information to make an educated decision when we make our recommendations on the design of your plan.. Then, we listen and ask questions. We want to know about you, your family, your goals, your hopes, your expectations, and your personality. We ask questions to dig deeper and to explore the "what if's" that can sometimes throw wrenches into the best of plans.. Lastly, we make our recommendations and begin to design the plan of your choice. While most of our clients' follow our recommendations, sometimes you may want to take a more risky approach or a more defined approach than what we recommended. That is great! At the end of the day, our core belief is that we design the plan our client wants... because, the bottom line is, it is your plan, not ours.. In addition to estate planning (wills, trusts, powers of attorney, beneficiary deeds, medical directives, etc.), we also assist clients with estate administration. Usually, estate administration means either going through the probate process in the county courts, or managing the administration of a Trust. These processes can be scary for someone who has never had to deal with them before. So, we act as a guide through the process. Helping you understand the whats and hows; as well as drafting required legal documents to protect you from liabilities that can arise during the respective process.. We're here to help, give us a call if you need help.
