Expedited Estate Planning
for Young Adults

 
 

If you or someone you love is between the ages of 18-25, it is important to make sure you have the right documents in place to in case of an emergency.

For young adults who are heading off to school or enlisting in the military in the next month or so, there is still time to make sure you have documents in place in case someone needs to step in because of a health or other emergency. This is available only to young adults who are Ohio residents (even if you are going to school in another state).

In order to get the documents completed before the end of August, please use the links below to

  • Complete our Young Adult Preliminary Profile

  • Schedule Your Appointment with McFadden Bushnell staff to Discuss Planning

  • Pay the $400 fee for the initial appointment, preparation of documents, and signing appointment

We have a limited number of appointments to complete documents by the end of August.*

Because we would like to make our meeting as productive as possible, if the Young Adult Preliminary Profile is not completed at least 1 business days before your scheduled appointment we may need to reschedule our meeting. Please complete as much of the form as possible as the more information you are able to provide, the more efficient and thorough our initial meeting will be. If you have any questions about the form, please do not hesitate to call our office for assistance.
