Will Week 2019

Will Week is April 22-27

Having a valid, up-to-date Will, Health Care Directive and Power of Attorney ensures that your wishes will be met after your death. It also provides a great opportunity to make a charitable gift to a cause that’s important to you.

During the week of April 22-27 legal professionals volunteer their time to host free public presentations on the importance of wills and estate planning. These sessions are for information purposes only.

View the schedule of events here. Registration is required. New this year is online registration, or call (204) 948-3394. Sessions are first come, first serve and seating is limited.
