You don’t want to think about what will happen to your children or your assets should you pass suddenly or become unable to care for them.
But you should.
You might think that because you don’t have an estate, you don’t need an estate plan.
But you do.
Save your family time, money, heartache, and conflict by estate planning. Join us as we welcome Jason Bielagus, Esq. and Donald Sienkiewicz, Esq. who will be breaking down what may seem overwhelming into the basics of estate planning for families, and for any age or family configuration. Presentation over Zoom and in-person. Indicate your choice on the registration form found here: REGISTER

Fostering confidence & competence
“My child, who is autistic, and I were often made to feel uncomfortable in public places. He sometimes has behavioral issues that make it hard for him to be accepted in play groups. I was feeling isolated and discouraged. The River Center’s Children’s Enrichment program changed all that. They welcomed my son with open arms! For the first time, I felt hope – as a parent and for my child.”
