On October 10, the Hub on Smith in Sheridan will hold its annual public seminar on estate planning. The free event is designed to help families understand the essential legal documents—wills, trusts, powers of attorney and healthcare directives—needed to safeguard their financial and medical decisions.
Why the Seminar Matters
Recent surveys show that only about a quarter of Americans have a will in place. Without these documents, families can face costly court battles and uncertainty during a crisis. The seminar aims to close that gap by giving attendees practical guidance from experienced estate lawyers.
What Attendees Can Expect
Speakers will explain the differences between a will and a trust, how to appoint a durable power of attorney, and why a healthcare power of attorney is critical for emergency medical decisions. They will also cover steps to update documents as life circumstances change, such as marriage, the birth of children, or retirement.
Who Should Attend
The session is open to all Sheridan residents, especially parents who want to ensure their children’s future is protected, seniors planning for long‑term care, and anyone interested in making informed financial and medical choices.
How to Register
Registration is available online through the Hub on Smith website or by calling the office during business hours. Space is limited, so early sign‑up is encouraged.
By providing clear, faith‑aligned guidance on protecting families, the seminar reflects Sheridan’s commitment to strong, traditional values and personal liberty.
