Estate Planning for Mommy Dentists: Protect Your Kids, Your Practice, and Your Peace of Mind

Course Description:

As a parent and a dental practice owner, you’ve worked hard to build a life for your family and your patients—but what happens if you’re no longer here to guide it?

This webinar is designed specifically for mommy dentists, including those who are divorced or co-parenting, and will address the critical estate planning steps every dental professional should take to protect their children and practice. You’ll learn how to avoid devastating mistakes, including how a judge—not you—could decide who raises your kids, and how probate could destroy the value of your practice’s goodwill.

We’ll also cover the unique estate planning rules for dental practices in California (with tips that apply in other states too), and how to create a modern, legally sound plan from the comfort of your home—no courtrooms, no confusion, no wasted time.
