Estate Settlement

The Problem

You have a 1 in 3 chance that there will be some fractured relationship in your family during an estate settlement. That warm, whole family spirit we all yearn for could be broken

It’s no secret that money issues commonly cause strain in families. And such issues become much more intense when the family is grieving and managing an estate.

Crises and grief often trigger relationship difficulties which, in turn, make money & property issues much more difficult to resolve. Family relationships are irreparably fractured in the process, as in this family: “I had no idea this would happen in my family. We always got along pretty well. We never had any business dealings among the siblings, and Mom and Dad didn’t leave us much instruction. Now my sister won’t even talk to me.”

Often there is an underlying fear of violating the unwritten family code. Fear paralyzes decision making that could benefit the family. It can freeze communication, and cause emotional shut down.

You already know, perhaps from painful personal experience, how a relationship with unresolved conflict, allowed to simmer, can boil over and be extremely difficult to heal.
