⚖️ Estate Planning
-
In Maine, Idaho, and Washington, many estate planning documents can be executed virtually, subject to specific witness or notary rules that vary depending on the document and state.

We recommend reviewing your plan every 3–5 years or after major life events like marriage, divorce, starting a business, purchasing property, or moving state-state.
