The goal of this monthly series is for women to come to a welcoming setting where they hear about relevant topics and ask the questions they have never asked. Take charge of your financial life. Be empowered. No question is a bad question and we’ll answer in the simplest way we can. No jargon, we promise.

We’d like to thank Ellen Glickman-Simon for hosting our April 12th Empower Women Event, Estate Planning for Serenity and Empowerment. An increased sense of serenity and empowerment are two of the main reasons to plan for your legal health. Many of us, especially parents of young children, do not realize how comforting it can be to have a plan in place in case of illness or death. Instead, we feel apprehensive about the choices involved in the estate planning process: who to name as beneficiaries, fiduciaries (e.g., health care agents), or guardians. While it takes courage to do this work and discipline to make the time to do it, the rewards are great. Feelings of relief, pride, empowerment, and solace often follow a completed estate plan. Ellen offered a manageable, step-by-step approach to creating your Will, Health Care Proxy, Durable Power of Attorney, Trust (for certain situations) and related estate planning documents.
Ellen Glickman-Simon, J.D., L.L.M. Ellen graduated from Tufts University in 1982, received her law degree from Northeastern University School of Law in 1987, and her master’s degree (L.L.M.) in tax law from Boston University School of Law in 1988. She practiced law in the tax department of a major Boston firm as well as a suburban business firm before establishing her own office in Sudbury, MA, in 1995 where she has over 25 years of estate planning experience.
We hope you enjoy this podcast episode!
