Food for Thought

There are on this Site a number of essays that I have collectively labeled "Food for Thought", which discuss various aspects of the estate planning process. They were prepared over a period of time as client education pieces, and not originally with a view to appearing on this Site.

They are deliberately generic and I believe (but cannot assure) that they would largely apply in all jurisdictions in the U.S.A., with the proviso, however, that in a couple of the pieces there are a few specific references to Maryland law.

The essays on selection of fiduciaries, on preparing a letter of instructions, and on disability planning are relatively non-controversial --- the essay on lifetime giving has a particular point of view, which I have taken no trouble to hide. You may agree or not, as you see fit, but I hope it at least stimulates your thinking on the subject.
