About this title

Synopsis

This book is intended to give women a roadmap to legal and financial protections, security, and opportunities they can create for themselves as they transition from one life phase to another-whether the transition is by choice or fate. It establishes a "how to" process so that a woman can protect herself. Further, it explores the legal, financial and estate planning ramifications women face as they transition through each life phase - leaving home the first time, choosing to marry (or not), building a career, having children or living without children, divorcing, facing a life crisis and, ultimately, being alone again after the death of a spouse or partner. Failure to do so can make or break their future security.
