Buckingham professionals will partner to present a free workshop. You know it’s important to make a plan for what happens to your assets and family when you die, but, if you’re like two-thirds of American adults, you have not taken that first step toward putting an estate plan in place. This could put your loved ones at risk for estate taxes, large legal bills or family disputes. It could also mean that everything you have worked so hard to build in your lifetime does not go to the people you want it to when you die, or that people you love are not taken care of the way you intend. There will be a free estate planning workshop on Oct. 30, from 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at the Farmville Train Station, 510 West Third St., Farmville. Featured speakers include Business and Estate Attorney James Seidl, Certified Public Account Tom Hill, and Independent Insurance Agent David Wise.
