A will protects your family's financial future. A living will protects your personal autonomy and relieves loved ones of the burden of guessing your medical wishes in an emergency.

**This program is sponsored by The New Jersey State Bar Foundation. The NJSBF offers a wide variety of free law-related and civics-based publications, programs and education for the public, New Jersey teachers and their students.**

Join estate planning attorney Tina James, Esq. for a clear overview of the documents every adult should have in place. This presentation covers the fundamentals of last wills and testaments—how they work, what happens without one, and how to ensure your wishes are carried out—as well as living wills and advance directives that let you make your healthcare preferences known. Learn the difference between these key documents, common mistakes to avoid, and practical steps to protect yourself and your loved ones. Bring your questions; time for Q&A will be included.

Presented by Tina James of Tina James Law, P.A. This program is educational and does not constitute legal advice.

Presenter: Tina James, Esq. is the founder of Tina James Law, P.A. in South Amboy, where she helps individuals and families plan for the future and protect the people they love. Licensed in New Jersey and Florida, Tina works closely with her clients on wills, trusts, and advance directives, guides families through estate administration and guardianship, and creates thoughtful plans for loved ones with special needs. A graduate of Rutgers Law School, she clerked with the New Jersey Appellate Division and honed her skills as a litigator and in special needs planning before opening her own practice. She brings that depth of experience to every matter while making the process clear and approachable—because she believes good planning should give you peace of mind, not add to your worries.
