The 7-Step Family Protection Workbook: Will Your Estate Plan Work When Your Family Needs It Most?

The workbook helps you clarify what you want your plan to accomplish, identify possible gaps, prepare the right people, and decide what to do next, whether this is your first revocable living trust-based estate plan or you are reviewing an old one.

Separately, you can subscribe to A Matter of Trust, a weekly newsletter from Tamara featuring practical estate-planning guidance, thoughtful reflections on family and legacy, and other estate planning ideas worth passing along. Sign up for one or both.

Not ready for a room full of people?

That is completely fine. A Right Fit Call is a short, private conversation to see whether we are the right firm for your family.

Questions about attending

Workshops and Member Education

How our educational events work, what the difference is between them, and how to sign up.

Do I have to register in advance?

Yes, please register in advance. Seats are limited by the room, and registering is how we know how many to set. Registration takes about a minute and shows you the dates currently open for each location.

Is there a cost to attend an event?

No. Every workshop Estate Planners for Life hosts is free, and nothing is sold at them.

Can financial advisors and CPAs attend?

Yes, and many do. We also co-host planning sessions with financial professionals across the Oklahoma City metro. If you advise clients and want to attend or co-host rather than simply refer, our planning partners page explains how we work alongside advisors and accountants.

What if I cannot make any of the scheduled dates?

Request a Right Fit Call instead. The workshop is the easiest introduction, but it is not a prerequisite for anything, and a short conversation will get you further than waiting for a date that works. You can also call the office at (405) 364-2246.

More questions are answered on our estate planning FAQ, or ask us yours on a Right Fit Call.

Is your plan built to grow with your family?

Estate planning is a process, not an event. Start with a Right Fit Call: a short, no-pressure conversation to see whether we are the right firm for your family, and what a plan that walks alongside you would look like.
