Topic: Wills & Estate Planning Post-Baby
Guest Speaker: Joel Altman, Senior wills and estates lawyer
Join us on March 3, 2011 for an information session with Q&A on wills and estate planning post-baby.
Now that baby is in the picture, we are faced with important legal considerations to ensure that baby will be protected if something should happen to mum and dad.
Senior wills and estates lawyer Joel Altman [http://www.hammerco.net/partners_and_associates/jaltman.php] will be joining us to provide an overview of the issues, and to answer questions that you may have. In order to make the most of the session, some things to think about and perhaps discuss with your spouse in advance are:
1) Who will be your child's guardian?
2) Who will be the executor (administrator) of your estate?
3) Who will the other beneficiaries (heirs) be?
4) Do you have alternates in mind, i.e. in the event that your first choices for guardian / beneficiaries / executor are unable to act as appointed, or to inherit?

“Bopomo has been the most exhilarating experience of my professional life,” she says. “Although my background helped prepare me to launch Bopomo, nothing in my previous jobs compares to the amount of work, challenges and rewards that come with running your own business. Along the way I’ve met a few truly inspiring people who helped me immensely. And hopefully I’ve done the same for others, because at the heart of any endeavour is the strength of the relationships that grow and thrive out of it.”
