Planning for Peace: Why Estate Planning Matters More Than Ever
By: Bank of Marin Senior Trust Officer Juliane Veselik
October marks National Estate Planning Awareness Month, a timely reminder that preparing for the future isn’t just about finances, it’s about protecting the people in our lives who we value the most. This means ensuring you have the proper estate planning documents in place.
At Bank of Marin, we understand that conversations around estate planning can be difficult. The reality of passing away is never easy to face, and for loved ones, navigating the legal and financial complexities that follow can be overwhelming. That’s why having a steady, experienced hand to guide the process from beginning to end can make all the difference.
Our Wealth Management & Trust team offers more than just investment expertise. We provide compassionate, comprehensive estate settlement services that bring clarity and peace of mind during life’s most challenging moments. Our trust department can act as a Corporate Fiduciary, handling your final affairs when you pass. Some of the many benefits of naming a Corporate Trustee include experience, professional asset management, regulation, reliability and objectivity.
We maintain strong relationships with some of the most respected estate planning attorneys in the region, and we’re happy to provide referrals so you can draft the pertinent documents that are needed, such as a Trust, Will, Health Care Directives, and Durable Power of Attorney. Whether you’re just starting to think about your legacy or updating an existing plan, we encourage you to reach out and take advantage of these resources.
Estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy, it’s for anyone who wants to ensure their loved ones are cared for, their intentions are clear, and their legacy is preserved. Let Bank of Marin be your trusted ally in this journey, offering the guidance, stability, and personal attention that you deserve.
