FORT MYERS, Fla. - April 22, 2015 - PRLog -- Attorney and author Craig R. Hersch has authored and published his second estate planning book entitled, “Legal Matters When a Loved One Dies.” It follows his first book entitled, "Common Cents Estate Planning" published the fall of 2014. Both books provide practical, easy-to-understand information to help readers navigate complex and sometimes confusing wills, trusts, and estate planning matters.

Hersch's new book will be a valuable resource for widows, widowers, sons, daughters, and other family members as they prepare to work with attorneys, CPAs and financial advisors following a death. The book provides a checklist of documents that need to be gathered for upcoming meetings with advisors. He explains how the probate and trust administration processes differ, as well as the roles of personal representatives and trust administrators. Property and homestead rights are discussed, along with what usually happens to personal automobiles, investment and bank accounts, settling up with creditors, handling insurance and annuity accounts, accessing safe deposit boxes, dealing with personal effects, filing taxes and a wealth of other specific information based on Hersch's 26 years of experience helping Florida families.

In addition to being a Florida Bar Board Certified wills, trusts and estates attorney, Hersch is also a Florida licensed CPA and a founding shareholder and board member of a private trust company, so he fully understands how the legal, tax and financial components need to come together for a smooth, successful settlement. Always an interesting, easy read, Hersch peels away the legal jargon to help individuals grasp Florida estate laws in practical, everyday terms, so they can work collaboratively with their professional advisors.
