Have a student who is 18? Is your child headed to college? If so, this FREE webinar is for you.

Attention, parents of young adults: You're invited to join trusts and estates attorney Virginia Carter for a webinar on June 11, as she discusses important legal documents that most parents do not have in place for their children when the children turn 18. The webinar is free, but registration is required.
