Estate Planning Isn’t Spooky: Plan Now, Celebrate Later
October is here — the month of pumpkins, costumes, and spooky fun. But while Halloween might bring ghosts and ghouls to San Francisco, the real fright for families often comes from something less festive: facing the future without an estate plan.
At Von Rock Law, we believe estate planning isn’t spooky — it’s a gift. By planning now, you’ll protect your family from unnecessary stress and give them the clarity they’ll be grateful for later.
Why Estate Planning Can Feel Scary
Talking about death makes many people uncomfortable, which is why so many put off estate planning. But the real “scare” isn’t death itself — it’s what happens without a plan in place.
Without an estate plan, families are often haunted by:
- Probate court delays that can last months or years
- Costly disputes among beneficiaries
- Uncertainty and stress about “what you would have wanted”
- Additional expenses that drain your legacy
These outcomes are far scarier than the process of planning.
