Attorney Holley Knapik says dont wait to update your will and gives some reasons

Attorney Tom Olsen: My guest today is Attorney Holley Knapik. Holley, welcome back to the show.

Attorney Holley Knapik: Thank you, Tom.

Attorney Tom Olsen: Holley, what have you been working on this week?

Attorney Holley Knapik: This week, we've had a lot of email clients, so clients emailing because they've listened to our show or they find us on the internet at olsenlawgroup.com, and they'll say, "Hey, I need to update my will or I've never done a will. I heard the show, think this is a fit." So it's a lot of emailing back and forth, giving information, and working with people to get their estate planning done.

One thing I would say is I'd like to give a call to action. If you're thinking about it, if it's been on your mind lately to have your existing will or trust reviewed or updated, do it, because this week is also been a lot of phone calls I've received of someone passing away and not getting that done. It was on their mind, they didn't get in, they couldn't get it done, and so, I'd just like to say, if you're thinking about it, give us a call.

Attorney Tom Olsen: Well said, Holley. People out there, I can understand their concerns about having their will or trust done thinking, "Oh gosh, if I get this done, I'm just going to die," but I can say that's not realistic.

Attorney Holley Knapik: That is not.

Attorney Tom Olsen: What is realistic is that you're gonna come here and we're going to make the process very simple for you at the Olsen Law Group, and then you're going to walk out of here like there's a weight that's been lifted from your shoulders, knowing that you've got it done and you're going to make life much easier and simpler for your loved ones.

Attorney Holley Knapik: Absolutely. That's what we're here for, and no question is weird, crazy. We have clients who say, "Oh, I'm sure you've never heard of this before." No, you're in good company, it happens all the time, so sometimes there's also a bit of fear approaching this subject. It's not a happy one, but we try to make it as simple and as easy as possible so that, like you said, you walk out with a weight lifted.
