SUMMARY:In Person Presentation: Let’s Talk About Your Legacy – A Discussion About Wills and Advance Directives
DESCRIPTION:This presentation is in partnership with Friends House Retirement Community\, based in Sandy Spring\, Maryland.  The information below is being shared on behalf of Friends House and was created by Friends House as well.\nGreetings from Friends House Retirement Community! \nAugust is National Make a Will Month. Did you know that while more than half of Americans think having a will is important\, only a third have one? \nCreating a will is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure your wishes are honored. Yet\, many people delay this vital task. Here at Friends House\, we understand that the process can seem overwhelming\, but it doesn’t have to be. \nA will allows you to: \n\nProvide for your loved ones and avoid family disputes.\nSupport charitable organizations that reflect your values.\nSpecify how your assets are distributed.\n\nHere are a few reasons why having a will is crucial: \n\nControl Over Your Estate: Without a will\, state laws will determine how your assets are distributed\, which may not align with your wishes.\nSupport Charities: You can leave a legacy by donating to causes you care about.\nMinimize Taxes: Proper estate planning can help reduce the taxes that your heirs will have to pay.\n\nThroughout August\, we’ll be sharing more information about the importance of wills and how you can create or update yours. Your legacy can make a lasting impact on the lives of your loved ones and the residents of Friends House. \nTo learn more\, read our latest blog post: Why August is the Perfect Time to Plan Your Legacy. \nFriends House is pleased to host a special in person presentation by Attorney Lilly Hummel from Elville and Associates. In honor of National Make a Will Month\, this event will provide valuable insights on wills and estate giving\, helping you plan your legacy with confidence.  to RSVP to the event\, please email Friends House Director of Development Anne Derby at ADerby@friendshouse.com. \n

People receiving federal and state means tested benefits such as SSI and Medicaid are not permitted to have assets over $2\,000 without jeopardizing their vital benefits. This asset limit has created a cycle of poverty for people with disabilities by forcing it those receiving public benefits to spend down their assets just to maintain their benefits. The Stephen Beck Jr. Achieving A Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act\, passed in 2014 has made it possible for people with disabilities to save for everyday expense and invest for the future without jeopardizing their vital benefits. With an ABLE account\, people with disabilities can build self-reliance as they can save for their goals as well as pay for the additional costs of living with a disability while still maintaining waiver benefits such as food\, energy and housing assistance. According to the National Association of State Treasurers (NAST) there are 150\,615 ABLE accounts nationwide with $1.49 billion in assets. Still there are many people with disabilities who are not benefiting from an ABLE account because they either have not heard of ABLE or do not understand how ABLE programs work.  \nPresented by Maryland ABLE’s Outreach and Communications Manager Kelly Nelson\, attendees of this presentation will learn about the ABLE Act\, the eligibility criteria\, account management process\, how funds can be used to pay for qualified disabilities expenses\, tax-advantaged savings and investment options\, online gifting and a prepaid card for easy access to funds. \nTo RSVP and receive your personal link to attend\, please click here.  Should you have any questions before the webinar\, please contact Community Relations Director Jeff Stauffer at jeff@elvilleassociates.com\, or 443-343-8529 x117.  We look forward to hosting you! \nOpen to clients\, financial advisors\, and the general public\, 1.5 continuing education hours are available for most professionals who attend this presentation. \n#elvilleeducation \n#elvillewebinarseries \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

SUMMARY:Webinar: How to Achieve Perfection for Your Legacy – Intentionalism in Estate Planning
DESCRIPTION:Many people want to achieve excellence in their estate planning – to establish an estate plan that works as intended – one that will stand the test of time\, accomplish personal goals and priorities\, provide for the disposition of assets in the desired way to the persons and/or organizations of choice\, controlling costs\, and setting forth values\, ideas\, concepts\, and aspirations – organized by leading-edge legal-technical concepts that are up to date at the time of death\, and guided by highly instructional letters of wishes or memorandums.  Yet few people understand the kind of estate planning process necessary for the realization of this ideal\, and even fewer people are offered the opportunity to participate in the kind of process necessary to facilitate the same.  To say that achieving true excellence in estate planning is akin to successfully sailing around the world alone is not an exaggeration.  It takes all of the stuff of legend\, including purpose\, persistence\, patience\, and introspection; partnership with your estate planning attorney and an adequate process forward (facilitated by the attorney); maintenance and updating of the estate plan over time; and more.  In short\, true excellence in estate planning requires being extremely intentional.  In this webinar\, Stephen R. Elville\, Managing Principal and Lead Attorney with Elville and Associates\, P.C.\, will lead a discussion about Intentionalism in estate planning.  Topics of discussion will include: \n\nWhy being intentional in estate planning matters;\nUnderstanding the risks in estate planning;\nWhy knowing what you want out of estate planning matters;\nAvoiding estate plan failure\, and why estate plans may not work as intended;\nMaintaining and updating your planning;\nThe importance of Partnership\n\nPlease click here to register for the presentation and receive the webinar link ahead of time.  Should you have any questions beforehand\, please contact Community Relations Director Jeff Stauffer at jeff@elvilleassociates.com\, or at 443-393-7696\, x117. \nOpen to clients\, advisors\, and the general public.  1.5 continuing education credits will be available for most advisors who attend this presentation.  We look forward to hosting you! \n#elvilleeducation \n#elvillewebinarseries
