Elder stresses the importance of a will at Women's Empowerment Luncheon

Shelley joined four other speakers at the Women's Empowerment Luncheon July 15 in Smyrna hosted by the Phelps Financial Group of Kennesaw. The dangers to yourself and/or your heirs could and should be avoided by ensuring that one has a sound will written with a strong understanding of Georgia estate law, she said.

Specialty expertise is needed beyond a law degree, said Elder, to avoid probate court and potentially emotional and divisive disagreements with family.

Other speakers included Samantha Maxwell, CPA, MBA; Melva Robertson, The Write Media Group; Jennifer Randel, Wellness Director at the Northwest YMCA, and Kizzy Martin Bailey, communications specialist.
