Are you ready to build your Legacy?. “The name, Legacy, came from my vision and goals of the life I wanted to create for myself and my future family. I wrote about developing a legacy in my essays to get into college and law school. Legacy was not just an idea to me; it is a lifestyle. Your legacy is your purpose, your passion, your hopes, dreams, and desires coming to life to influence and touch the lives of your family, friends, and your community.. From a child, I knew I wanted to be a lawyer. For My whole life and even up until halfway through Law school, I’ve always wanted to be a criminal defense attorney. Yet, my purpose kept pulling me in a different direction. Estate planning became so fun and interesting to me. I felt it couldn’t just be a coincidence that legacy and estate planning correlated with one another. Estate planning gave me the opportunity to learn a specialized area of law and educate those around me who had no clue what it meant nor that it even existed. Unfortunately, death is something everyone will experience. Yet, too many times I have seen families destroyed financially when someone passes away due to a failure to properly plan for the inevitable. Disagreements about money, property, or personal effects ultimately ruin families for the same reasons.. With the right advice and guidance, not only can a person prepare financially for before and after their passing, but they can also invest back into their families what they’ve worked hard for their whole lives. Then, it becomes a generational tradition, unconsciously, for your family and before you know it, your great grandchildren are talking about what great things you did and how your sacrifices have now benefitted them. And that is what I call …. Legacy.”
