Member Spotlight: Bayanihan - Estate Planning Essentials

We are excited to launch our FBANC Member Spotlight Series: Bayanihan. The term bayanihan means “being in a bayan”, which refers to the spirit of communal unity. FBANC will be featuring FBANC members and spotlighting their practice areas to provide practical tips and advice to our members.

On April 29, 2021, FBANC featured Nicole Ramos Takemoto, Special Counsel at Candeleria PC. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of estate planning. During this webinar, Nicole discussed how to prepare for themselves the statutory forms for three essential documents: durable power of attorney, advance health care directive, and a will. She also discussed the limits of the statutory documents so that attorneys will be able to issue spot scenarios where a more comprehensive estate plan is appropriate. This member spotlight was moderated by FBANC Social Co-Director, Jerel Agatep.
