TrustGuard™

Welcome to TrustGuard™! This exclusive JGB service program protects your family by keeping your estate plan current, viable and funded. Completing your Estate Plan was a critical first step in ensuring the financial security and well-being for you and your family. Maintaining your Estate Plan is the next and, equally important, second step. At JGB we believe that as your life changes, so should your Estate Plan.

A new child, grandchild, marriage or divorce in the family, significant variation in net worth, or acquiring or selling real estate are just some of the life changes that can have a dramatic effect on the optimal structure and effectiveness of your Estate Plan.

In addition, changes to local, state and federal laws can have a significant impact on your Estate Plan even if your life circumstances remains unchanged. At the request of our clients, JGB has designed TrustGuard™ to make it easier for you to be certain that your Estate Plan is up-to-date, maintained and funded over time.
