From how to minimize fighting and manage the emotional roller coaster that comes with a loved one's loss, to understanding legal responsibilities and suggestions for executors, this guide offers solutions based on decades of experience in working with families and their estates from coast to coast.

    Written by Julie Hall, national personal property expert and author of the best-selling book, "The Boomer Burden - Dealing with Your Parents' Lifetime Accumulation of Stuff," this guide is a must-read for every family challenged with dividing an estate and not wanting the family to divide in the process.
