You Are Invited to Our Client Event This Week

“Where There’s a Will, There’s a Way”  is an informational meeting for the public which will be held on February 7 and then again on February 9.  Jennifer Carlson, an estate planning attorney in Council Bluffs, will be our guest speaker.

Do you know about the most effective vehicle for carrying out your estate planning goals?  How will you decide between a will and a trust?  What happens if you do nothing regarding your estate?  What happens if your will or trust is out of date?  What do you need to know about power of attorney?  What is there to know beyond just traditional estate planning?

For answers, we invite you to our seminar, “Where There’s a Will, There’s a Way,” sponsored by Dickinson Investment Advisors.

We will offer the seminar during two different time slots:

                   Tuesday, February 7, 3:00-4:30 pm

                   Thursday, February 9, 7:00-8:30 pm
