“I look beyond the names on your trust to the people who will live with those choices.”
Tammy Silvas, Personal Family Lawyer® attorney

Your trustee choice affects more than paperwork. It touches your children’s relationship, the assets they must manage, and the support they will need. I help you consider those pieces together through a Life & Legacy Plan.

“A retirement strategy needs more than a tax estimate. It needs people who know what happens next.”

Tammy Silvas, LIFTed Business Advisor

Who confirms eligibility? Who changes payroll? Who sends the deposit?
I help you connect the legal, insurance, financial, and tax decisions so a recommendation becomes coordinated next steps, without replacing your CPA or plan administrator.

That does not mean your children cannot be a good team. It means their names deserve more thought than “I want everyone included.”

In this week’s article, I explain how to consider the responsibilities alongside your family relationships, assets, and wishes. We look at shared roles, backups, and professional support without treating any one arrangement as right for everyone.

Estate Planning Awareness Week is a reminder to look beyond having documents. Are the people you’ve chosen still the right fit? You are not ranking your children. You are thinking about what will help them when you cannot handle things yourself.

You kept payroll moving all year. Your own retirement deserves a place on the calendar, too.

Some retirement decisions cannot wait until tax season. Setting up a plan, choosing contributions from pay, and depositing the money can have different deadlines.

This week’s article explains what to ask now, before “I’ll handle it when I file” limits your choices.

BORED in Retirement?
Losing track of the days because they are all the same?
Once the celebration is done the freedom of retirement can get rather vanilla.

But what does one do in "retirement" that creates purpose.
The answer might be in what you build rather than find.

Think:

• Relationships
• Movement
• Learning
• Creativity
• Contribution

That doesn't mean filling every minute.

It means having more than one reason to look forward to tomorrow.

Our newest Silvas Law Elder Law article explores how purpose can be intentionally built—and rebuilt—through the later stages of aging.

There is money in your business account. How much is already spoken for?

Suppose projected federal tax is $60,000, you have paid $38,000, and another $8,000 will be withheld. That leaves a $14,000 difference, not spare cash.

This is a cash-planning illustration, not a payment-timing or penalty calculation. The article explains what to ask before spending.

Equal love. Different responsibilities.
You can leave your children equal inheritances without naming both to manage your trust. Sharing the money and sharing the job are different decisions.

For Estate Planning Awareness Week, explore how willingness, family dynamics, and decision-making rules help you choose a trustee without making it a test of love.

💡 Retirement planning often answers one question very well:
“Will I have enough?”
But there's another question that may matter just as much:
“Enough for what?”

Wes Moss recently wrote about the value of developing five “core pursuits”—recurring activities that create meaning, connection and momentum in retirement.

Our new Elder Law article takes that idea one stage further.

What happens to those pursuits at 78, 88 or 98 when circumstances change?

Read it for:

• A different way to think about retirement purpose
• Why purpose should be diversified, not dependent on one activity
• How Elder Law planning can help preserve meaningful choices later

Financial independence is important.

But perhaps the better goal is life independence for as long as possible—and intentional support when independence changes.

“A tax break shouldn’t leave you scrambling to make payroll.”
Tammy Silvas, LIFTed Business Advisor

Your accountant can evaluate the tax treatment. I help connect the legal decisions with insurance, cash flow, and your family’s needs. Together, those pieces should support what you are building, not pull your money in different directions.
