About Theresa Clancy
I make estate planning easy, efficient, and effective so you can check it off the to do list and feel protected for the unexpected. I have been doing estate planning since my husband had a heart attack. I am married with four children who are either attending college or have graduated college (yeah!). I am a big proponent of family dinner and I love cooking (I'm a Barefoot Contessa Cookbook Fan!).
