Re: Death
I am very sorry regarding your friend's cancer. The best solution for your friend is to set up a trust, and to create a will. A trust will allow your friend to avoid probate and to insure that her wishes are followed. The type of trust will depend on her goals regarding her grandchildren. She needs to discuss her goals with a qualified Estate Planning Attorney.
Please would be happy to assist your friend in anyway we can. We can be reached at 248.220.1538. Good Luck.
