$400,000.00 for Legal Work
I posted earlier about Britney Spears legal issues arising from her tragic spiral down. Now, the court has ordered $400,000.00 in payments to those involved in protecting her.
Some of this couldn't be prevented by proper planning, however, it serves as an example for everyone. Without proper planning you are almost guaranteeing the court will be involved if an issue comes up.
I hope you can see the important of finishing the basic elements of an estate plan including will, nomination of guardian for minor children, power of attorney, health care power of attorney and a living will.
