More Than Just Your Money
HOW WE GUIDE YOU TO LEAVE A LEGACY THAT’S ABOUT MUCH MORE THAN JUST YOUR MONEY
After you are gone, your loved ones will miss you deeply. They will long for your words of counsel and concern. Hearing your voice again would be tremendous gift.
Through our unique legacy process, you can give your loved ones the most precious gift - a lasting expression of your love. What could be more valuable?
At Dotchin Law, we believe estate planning is not just about transferring your financial assets and personal belongings. It’s also about capturing and transferring your valuable intangible gifts: who you are and what’s important to you. Your values, insights, stories, and experiences.
LET ME TELL YOU A STORY
My grandmother is in her 80s. A few years ago, I found myself saving her voicemails because I know that someday she won’t be here to leave me messages anymore. I was comforted by the fact that when she’s gone, I’ll be able to listen to those messages and hear her voice when I miss her.
But, I realized it would be even better to have a recording of what she loved, what values she wanted to pass down to me, what lessons she’s learned throughout her life, and how she wants to be remembered.
YOU COULD MAKE A RECORDING, BUT WHO HAS TIME?
When I first started practicing, I would tell my clients to record a message for their loved ones and put it in a safe place. Or, I’d tell them to simply write notes for their children letting them know how they felt about them. But, so few people actually did it. We just get so caught up in the day to day of our lives that focusing on leaving a legacy seems to take a back seat.
I realized that I’d have to build this into our process and not make it just another thing you’ll get done someday. That’s why at Dotchin Law we make it part of our planning for every client to help you capture and pass on more than just your money. We also help you pass on your intellectual, spiritual, and human assets. We help you pass on who you are and what’s important to you.
WHAT WOULD IT BE WORTH?
Can you picture someone you loved who has passed away? Someone you love and miss deeply. Can you recall a conversation you had with them? Can you remember the sound of their voice and what they told you? What if you could hear their voice again?
What if they could speak to you - heart to heart - and share their wisdom and advice? What would it be worth to hear their words one more time?
What is it worth to you to know that they’ll always know exactly how much you love them? It’s worth a lot to us, and we are honored to be able to provide you and your family with this gift.
