Two Countries, One Family: Estate Planning for Korean Americans

Talking to Your Parents About Estate Planning: A Guide for Korean American Families

Estate planning is one of the most important conversations a family can have, and one of the easiest to put off. For Korean American families, it often comes with added layers: assets in both the U.S. and Korea, different legal systems, language gaps between generations, and cultural hesitation around discussing money and mortality.

In this webinar, attorneys from Han & Park Law Group will walk second-generation Korean Americans and their parents through the essentials:

• Why estate planning matters, even for families who don’t consider themselves wealthy

• When and how to start the conversation with your parents

• What information and documents you need to get started

• How probate and inheritance work differently in the U.S. and Korea

• Common issues Korean American families run into, and how to avoid them

Whether you’re an adult child wondering how to bring up the topic or a parent who wants to make things easier for your family, you’ll leave with a clear picture of where to begin.
