Using Wills and Trusts to Achieve Freedom, Legacy and Wealth with Attorney Terrence Franklin

Over 170 years ago, a white slave owner's brother contested the Will that set Lucy and her descendants free from slavery. She fought him in court and won. Today, her great great great great grandson, Terrence Franklin, is an award winning Wills and Trusts litigation attorneys. While he fights for planned generational wealth and legacy by profession, his passion and mission is to encourage us to take advantage of estate planning to reduce the wealth gap.  From the recounting of his fourth great grandmother’s freedom journey to his attending law school with the Obamas to the Buddhist practices that guide him, this conversation is anything but stuffy. In addition to covering the importance of estate planning, our conversation explores the influence of our ancestors and the process of living true to our passions, preferences and mission.  Terrence has three decades of experience handling trusts, estates and probate litigation, has received numerous awards and is a partner at Sacks Glazier Franklin & Lodise.
