The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm Owner, Shannon Pawley, Offers The Perfect Gift Idea For Every Family For This Holiday And Any Occasion.

Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm Owner, Shannon Pawley, shares a dramatic example of one couple that did not have an estate planning strategy in place and encourages every family to give the gift of security that a well thought out estate plan provides.

DECATUR, GA, December 07, 2021: Shannon Pawley, Owner of The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm, has posted a new blog on the law firm’s website entitled “A Well Thought Out Estate Planning Strategy Is The Perfect Gift,” in which Ms. Pawley shares a story that may motivate some readers to take action.

Pawley writes, “Here we are again moving into another holiday season and the end of another year fraught with ongoing fears about COVID-19 and its parade of variants. If there’s ever been a reason to establish a well thought out estate planning strategy,” she says, “living in a pandemic environment is a very clear catalyst for the need for well-founded planning. However, a friend recently sent me something she found on Facebook that, in my book, rivals the urgency provided by the pandemic.”

Pawley states, “And I quote: “Well, it’s done. My parents’ divorce was finalized yesterday. They are no longer married after 52 years. Still in love and still together but divorce was necessary because of dad’s medical bills. Now, when dad passes, mom won’t be saddled with $288,000 in debt. She’s free and the house is in her name. Pretty sad that decades of marriage comes to an end because of the American medical system.”

Pawley contends, “What a heartbreaking and drastic way to deal with medical expenses. I’m sure there were also costs associated with getting a divorce that could have been avoided.” As Pawley points out, “I don’t know the person who posted this story, nor do I know the circumstances that led her parents to the decision to divorce. But I do know that divorce is not a common technique used in estate planning.”

My husband has dementia. This firm has been patient, kind and professional while we went through a move from a house of 37 years in to a condo to be closer to my daughter and her husband. (Miami to Atlanta). There was also a wedding. All in 6 months.We now have a trust, power of attorney. Wills for my daughter and her husband and more. All at a fair price. I could not recommend higher.

Shannon Pawley and her team are exceptional at helping families navigate tough situations. We began working with her upon finding out my father had Stage 4 kidney cancer. His decline was more rapid than expected.Attorney Pawley and her entire team expedited paperwork that allowed me to focus on my father’s care, make decisions that suddenly needed to be made for him medically and financially, and has allowed me the ability to focus more on grieving and less on legal matters upon his passing.It is obvious she is knowledgeable about the best ways to navigate estates to protect the assets for the owners and their loved ones. It is just as obvious that she is passionate and has true heart for what her clients go through.We will be using her for own estate needs, and I recommend her expertise to everybody I can.This service is worth every penny we paid as it has saved us more money and time than I could imagine.

Attorney Shannon Pawley and paralegal Alexis McCoy are legal professionals that my wife and I highly recommend. Their grasp of the Georgia law pertaining to Medicaid assistance and the interworking's of the State department is exceptional. Additionally, their client-attorney relationship skills are excellent. We wouldn't hesitate to use this law firm again should the need arise.
