Then it’s “Your Legacy Your Way”, with Attorney Carolyn Duncan of Duncan Legal. On today’s show Carolyn explains why estate planning is essential for every family—not just the wealthy. Without a will or trust, Colorado law determines how assets are distributed, often creating delays, added costs, and family conflict. Carolyn stressed that planning protects not only assets but also relationships, especially for parents who need to designate guardians for minor children. She highlighted common mistakes, including failing to update documents, overlooking beneficiary designations, and relying on online forms that don’t reflect state-specific laws. Estate planning also prepares for incapacity, ensuring trusted individuals can make financial and medical decisions if needed. Carolyn encourages clients to start with a simple conversation, then build a plan tailored to their needs—whether a will, trust, or both. She emphasizes that the process is approachable and offers peace of mind. Call Duncan Legal today 303-394-2358. Visit the website at www.duncanlegal.com.
