I am thrilled to sit down with Attorney Jehan Crump-Gibson, founder and managing partner of Michigan-based Great Lakes Legal Group, for a candid and accessible breakdown of estate planning and probate avoidance for everyday people and families.
Drawing on 17 years as an attorney and representing clients in probate court, Crump-Gibson dismantles the myth that estate planning is only for the wealthy, walks through the real-world consequences of dying without a plan, and explains why the federal One Big Beautiful Bill Act actually underscores the urgency of planning for the average person — not just the ultra-rich.
From the dangers of relying on that one chosen family member to do the right thing, to why AI-generated wills can leave critical gaps, this episode is a practical, no-nonsense guide to protecting family, assets, and legacy.
