From Playroom to Peace Room IT’S YOUR TIME TO NEST
When the kids move out, they don’t just leave behind memories and laundry baskets. They also leave behind empty bedrooms full of potential. Instead of letting those spaces gather dust, you can transform them into a dream hobby room, an exercise studio, or anything else you can imagine. This is an opportunity to personalize your home in a new way, reflecting this exciting new stage of your life as an empty nester! Home Office Whether you work from home, have the time for a side hustle, or just want a quiet space to write or read online, an unused bedroom can become the perfect on-site office. Add a nice desk, a comfortable chair, and ample storage! Turning a room into an office creates a natural separation between work and relaxation. You can personalize this career corner with your favorite art, cute pencil holders, and a device charging station. Guest Room Now that the kids are away, you may be inviting more friends and family to visit, and they deserve a space that rivals a hotel. Turn your spare room into an inviting guest suite your loved ones won’t want to leave. Set up a comfortable bed with quality sheets, blankets, and other bedroom essentials, like a nightstand and reading light. You can create a serene experience by incorporating relaxing aromas like lavender candles and pretty
houseplants. A guest room allows you to host the people you care about, no matter how far away they may live. Your Happy Place It can be a tough transition when your children leave the nest, so this is a great opportunity to create a room that’s all about joy, fun, and relaxation. Think about what brings you happiness and fill the space with it. You can make a hobby room with all the supplies you need to paint, sculpt, write, or enjoy your favorite pastime. If a big bowl of popcorn and a movie night is your favorite way to spend a weekend, create a home theater with a big screen, comfy chairs, and a snack
area. If you’re a grandparent, an extra room can be a great play area filled with games, toys, and soft rugs.
TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF PROBATE WITH OUR ALL-INCLUSIVE SUPPORT Introducing Probate Plus+: A Better Way to Handle Probate
If you’ve ever helped settle an estate — or watched someone you love go through it — you know probate can be more than just paperwork. It’s a process that comes at one of life’s most stressful moments, often when you’re grieving, juggling family responsibilities, and trying to make sense of what feels like a mountain of forms, deadlines, and bills. I remember one client in particular — let’s call her Mary. When her father passed away, she came to us with his will and a simple question: “Where do I even start?” Mary was doing her best to keep the peace among her siblings, close out her father’s accounts, negotiate lingering medical bills, and sell his house — all while working full time and raising her own kids. At the time, we did everything we could for Mary within the scope of our
traditional probate service. But I’ll never forget how she’d call me in a panic: “Mike, the credit card company keeps sending letters — do I have to respond? The real estate agent wants a license to sell — do I need to file that myself? How do I make sure my brother gets his share?” The reality is that many families don’t realize just how much work the personal representative (PR) has to shoulder. And they shouldn’t have to do it alone. That’s exactly why we’re introducing Probate Plus+ — our new, all-inclusive probate option designed to take the weight off your family’s shoulders. Probate Plus+ builds on our trusted Essential Probate Plan but goes even further. We’ll handle creditor negotiations, gather date- of-death asset valuations, oversee asset transfers — even non-probate accounts like IRAs and savings bonds — and guide
you through tricky tasks like disbursements and final accountings. We’ll prepare motions, manage the timeline, and meet with you as often as needed. In short, we do the heavy lifting so your loved ones can focus on what matters most. The traditional Essential Plan is still available for families who want to manage more of the process themselves. But for those who want peace of mind — knowing that experts will handle the legal and financial details — Probate Plus+ is here. I started this firm nearly 20 years ago to make life easier for families during their most difficult moments. Probate Plus+ is one more way we’re keeping that promise. If you’d like to learn more about whether Probate Plus+ is the right fit for your family, give us a call. We’re always here to help.
