This event
- Honors Local Heroes: The event recognizes the vital contributions of firefighters, police officers, paramedics, and other first responders who risk their lives daily to keep communities safe.
- Community Impact: Many veterans and first responders lack access to essential estate planning services. This initiative ensures they and their families are legally protected—often for the first time.
- Volunteerism in Action: Utah attorneys are donating their time and expertise, demonstrating the legal profession’s commitment to public service.
This program utilizes specialized software to create estate planning documents based on pre-submitted questionnaires. First responders walk away with professionally prepared wills, living wills, and healthcare and financial powers of attorney free of charge.
