 Do you like to do it yourself? Don't. There are some things you should not do yourself like a fireworks display, heavy demolition, your haircut, and doing your own dental work. You need an expert when it comes to certain special skills like flying to the moon, performing heart surgery, or skydiving. Your estate plan requires an expert too. Why? Well, because there's a lot of room for air and when you're talking about family and assets, you don't want to make an error. So the next time you are thinking about creating an estate plan yourself or building your own parachute, don't.
