Financial Karma | Money Management | Mindfulness | Mindset | Holistic Financial Advice |

This week’s guest is Estate Planning Attorney, Michael “Misha” Gill, owner of Speedwell Law. He had worked on my own Last Will and financial/estate plan. Misha prefers to use the phrase “personal legal affairs” to refer to his practice rather than estate planning or succession planning. He is a 2013 graduate of the Penn State Dickinson School of Law.
