AI’s Impact on Estate Planning

Estate planning has always been about more than just documents—it's about protecting your legacy and ensuring your final wishes are honored. But as technology evolves, so does the way we approach this deeply personal process.

In this episode, Troy sits down with Jon Forster, attorney at BakerHostetler, to explore how artificial intelligence is beginning to influence estate planning. From streamlining paperwork to enhancing collaboration between clients, attorneys, financial professionals, and accountants, AI is poised to make the process more efficient. But it can’t replace the emotional, human conversations essential to planning your legacy. It just might make the journey a little easier for everyone involved.

Whether you're planning your own estate or advising others, this conversation offers valuable insights into the future of legacy planning in a digital world.
