Estate Planning & Money Advice for LGBTQ+ with Mitch Mitchell

This episode covers affordable estate planning for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples with Mitch Mitchell, Associate Counsel of Estate Planning at Trust & Will. Our money system in this country is outdated and antiquated and, by far, does not meet the needs of LGBTQ+ individuals and families. When it comes to estate planning and making sure that your assets get passed to who you want, things can get even more complicated if you’re in the LGBTQ+ community. Different states have different laws, and figuring it all out is hard.

You'll Learn:

• What makes estate planning for LGBTQ+ individuals so challenging
• What are the essential estate planning documents you need
• How much estate planning costs (and how to make it more affordable)
• How do you handle estate planning if you have kids, are adopting, or using a surrogate 
• Why the home-buying process can be tricky for LGBTQ+ couples and individuals
