AI can write emails, summarize articles, and answer quick questions—but should it be trusted to write something as important as your estate plan? In this episode of Elder Law Out Loud, we explore the growing trend of people turning to artificial intelligence and online tools to create wills and estate planning documents. While it may seem fast and convenient, the risks can be significant.

Our CEO & Founding attorney, Geoff Hoatson, breaks down what AI doesn’t understand—like family dynamics, blended families, long-term care planning, Medicaid rules, and the legal nuances that vary by state. We’ll discuss how small mistakes in estate documents can lead to major consequences for your loved ones, especially during moments of crisis.

If you’ve ever wondered whether AI can truly replace professional legal guidance, this conversation will help you understand the difference between automated answers and personalized planning—and why your family’s future deserves more than a template.
