It will also cover living wills and living trusts, as well as an overview of probate administration and the impact of estate and gift taxes. It will cover do not resuscitate directives (DNRs) and will touch on how limitations on Medicaid eligibility might affect your assets.
It will be held 10-11:30 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 15, at the Carnegie Building, 200 W 9th St. The session is free and open to the public.
