In this episode, Candace Dellacona, Principal and Shareholder in the Estates & Trusts practice at Offit Kurman, shares how she guides families through the most personal and complex planning issues: from wills and guardianships to elder care, LGBTQ+ planning, and business succession.

We cover:

• Why estate planning is about more than legal documents - it’s about family dynamics, time, and mental health.
• The biggest challenges facing the sandwich generation, from caregiver burnout to family conflict.
• How women disproportionately carry caregiving roles - and what that means for long-term planning.
• Special considerations for LGBTQ+ families, professional athletes, and high-profile clients.
• Practical ways to approach sensitive conversations with parents and loved ones.

Candace’s insights show why estate planning is less about wealth and more about protecting relationships and creating peace of mind.
