DETAILS

Some very famous people have died without a will—singer/songwriter Prince in 2016 and Aretha Franklin in 2018. Yet, it's not just famous people who often die without a will. Only 60% of Baby Boomers and 36% of Gen Xers have wills. In an engaging discussion, Trusts and Estates attorneys Gideon Rothschild and Dena Wolf will discuss the many benefits of having a will, even when there are no significant assets.
