Darlynn Morgan, an Orange County personal family lawyer (and fellow mommy) is having two upcoming free seminars to help parents learn how they can make sure their kids are protected. The first is an in-person seminar and the second is a free call-in teleseminar. Spots fill up quickly, so best to reserve a space if interested. Here are the details…
This is a great post with some really, really great information on one of the most important things we need to do for our kids: clearly state who we would want to be their guardians, you know, just in case. Darlynn Morgan is a local OC estate planning attorney (and OC mommy – that’s her with her little tiny orange!) who specializes in helping you get everything you need to in order so your kids are protected.
If you want to learn more, her next free teleseminar (=call in for free from home in your jammies!) will be held on November 17th at 8PM. Click HERE for more info and to register online. Here is what she wrote…
This guest blog was written by Peter from South County Law Group. Peter helped us with our estate planning awhile back. We loved working with him – click here to read about our experience.
As part of his estate planning process, he records an interview where parents get to talk about their beliefs, values and how they would like their children raised for the guardians named. To me, this was priceless and something that can be passed on down to future generations. Isn’t it cool to think about your great-great-great grandchildren getting to hear an audio recording talking about who you are and what you believe in? Such a special heirloom.
Here are some of his thoughts on the importance of preserving your life stories:

Expert Advice from the Morgan Law Group:
“It’s incredible to believe, but 74% of parents don’t have a Will and even those who do still risk their children being taken from their home, at least temporarily, if they are injured or die. Think about it. If your children are at home with a babysitter or at school and you are in an accident and can’t communicate, the police have no choice but to call in child protective services until they can figure out what to do. That can mean temporary foster care.
