The unexpected loss of a loved one is shocking, painful, and can be life-changing for family and close friends. If you've experienced this, you know. When death is expected, people are encouraged to plan their final wishes and to communicate these with those closest to them. They are also urged to leave clear, legal instructions for the disposition of any and all assets and possessions.
Unfortunately, my brother had done none of this. He had no spouse or children, and none of his investments identified a beneficiary. In the midst of grieving, our family had the immediate pressure of caring for his property, handling bills, and locating and reviewing countless boxes and files of documents and records.
The process for legal handling all of this is Probate. Many of us had heard the "horror stories” of this complicated, prolonged, frustrating, and inefficient legal process.
However, our family is so fortunate and grateful to have been referred to an excellent Attorney, Ron Berglund.
Ron is a very experienced professional with a compassionate heart who not only provided clear, continual communication through the process, efficiently handled all the legal details, but also continued to support us through this very sad and challenging time. Ron has even followed up with us a year later to be sure we are doing well.
While our probate process, guided by Attorney Berglund, was so much more efficient and effective than others have experienced, I urge everyone to address end-of-life decisions as soon as possible. Make this a priority so probate may not be necessary.
Mr. Berglund can assist with a wise, orderly, inclusive, and thoughtful organization of your wishes, to save your family the hardship of probate – and – to give you all peace of mind knowing that everything you valued and worked so hard for will be left for those you care about. Blessings!
