Join us as we explore the importance of being adequately insured and leaving our dear ones in good hands should unforeseen circumstances arise. Our guest, Jessica Lynn Silva shares her knowledge and experience on being a single mom and becoming the powerhouse attorney that she is now who helps people with their trust, probate and any kind of legal needs. In addition to being a superwoman, she is also a voice-over artist and a real estate investor.

She mentions being offered an opportunity to be a paralegal that she took, which started her long journey to meeting her husband and becoming an attorney. Jessica discusses how to find the niche that you want to be in when it comes to practicing law, to take the time to shadow and be an intern on professionals who are in the line of work and discover what fits you the most. She talks about the kind of expertise that she practices such as estate planning, beneficiaries and working on the split of assets and control between families. She talks about how probate is created for the benefit of creditors and it's not created for you and your loved ones, that's why the term "avoid probate" exists. She also mentions how estate planning is something a lot of people think they don't need until the worst has already happened.
