Protecting The Protectors: Estate Planning For First Responder Families
Description
Every Wednesday on The Jon Sanchez Show, we cover an estate planning topic designed to help families protect what matters most.
Today, this one is personal.
My guest is my son and best friend, Bret Sanchez, a former firefighter and paramedic with 15 years of service, and now Director of the First Responder Division of S.T.E.P.—Specialized Trusts & Estate Plans.
We’ll discuss why estate planning is so critical for firefighters, police officers, paramedics, dispatchers, correctional officers, and their families.
We’ll talk about what happens if a first responder doesn’t come home, who raises the kids, what happens to life insurance, pensions, deferred comp, beneficiary forms, and why having “some documents somewhere” may not be enough.
