The Importance of Estate Planning Seminars: What You Need to Know

Why Education Still Matters


Although 82 percent of Americans say estate planning is essential, only 32 percent actually have a plan in place, and the rate fell six percentage points this past year (Caring.com, 2024). The predominant reason cited? Most people acknowledge that they “don’t know where to start.” Our seminars solve that problem in ninety focused minutes.


The High Cost of Waiting


Legal fees: Even straightforward Arizona probate cases typically cost $2,000–$5,000 in attorney fees alone (Trust & Will).


Time: A routine probate cannot close in less than five months and often drags on for a year or more.


Privacy: Probate filings are public record, meaning anyone can read the details of your estate.


A living trust, powers of attorney, and proper asset titling can help bypass most of those headaches, but only if families take action before a crisis occurs.

How Seminars Bridge the Knowledge Gap


At RJP, our Seminar workshops allow you to listen to an expert, ask questions in real-time, and leave with actionable next steps. That interactive setting turns intimidating jargon into a practical plan. Your questions can be answered, and your plan can start being prepared.

What Makes RJP’s Seminars Different?

  • Frequency: Complimentary, 90-minute sessions every Tuesday and Thursday (we move to once a week, June–July).
  • Curriculum: Wills vs. living trusts, powers of attorney, probate myths, tax-efficient transfers, and asset-protection strategies.
  • Locations: Multiple Phoenix- and Tucson-area venues, so you’re never far from a seat.
