The Black Nonprofits and Business Podcast


Jan 17, 2024

Ep. #82 - This is a topic that has become near and dear to my heart because it's something I'm currently in the process of doing. Many people in the Black community have lost MILLIONS because we were never taught about wills, probate, trusts, power of attorney, etc.  The lack of this knowledge is why gentrification is happening in Black neighborhoods all over the United States. Well, I want to help us know better so we can do better. And please...please pass this information on to your loved ones, especially your children!

We Discuss:
What's the difference between a will and a trust?
What is probate? How can it be avoided?
How do I find an attorney? What should I look for?
How much does it cost to do a will or a trust?
Are online wills okay? Legal?
And much more!

In this episode, I am having a conversation with Attorney David Harty, who specializes in Estate Planning.  He has been practicing law for more than 40 years. He served as a judge for several years and quite frankly, he knows his stuff! For the last 20-plus years, he has focused on estate planning and we're fortunate to have him still serving; especially "our" community.
