20. Ifeoma "Iffy" Ibekwe, Esq.: What Is Your Legacy?

Listen Later

What comes to mind when you think about “legacy”?   Do you think about inheriting something?   Or leaving something for someone as an inheritance?   Or do you not think about “legacy” because you feel that you don’t have anything of value to give anyone?   Well, recent statistics reveal that over 70% of Black Families do not have estate plans in place which indicates that they may not be positioned to leave a legacy for their families.  

These are necessary documents that can allow the smooth passing of assets from one generation or person to another.   Establishing an estate plan can resolve problems with asset distribution but it also provides other protections which we utilize while living including wills, trusts, medical directives, power of attorneys, and more.    These protections are critical and are readily available from a reputable estate planning attorney.

To provide insight on the importance of estate planning our guest on this episode is Ifeoma (Iffy) Ibekwe, Esq.  an estate planning attorney, Founder, and Principal Attorney at Ibekwe Law, PLLC in Austin, Texas.    Iffy is an evangelist for inter-generational wealth transfer who activates intentional women so they can build impactful legacies.   We invite you to join us as we discuss:

  • The purpose and importance of having an Estate Plan
  • The components of an Estate Plan
  • The real cost of an Estate Plan
  • Protecting the control of your assets from the state where you live
  • Do It Yourself Estate Planning vs. Using an Estate Planning Attorney

    • Scripture: Proverbs 13:22   NIV

    A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children, but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous.
