On Our Daily Show, attorney Holly Marcum of Keith Short and Associates in Alton discusses her work in estate planning, probate and guardianship, as well as workers’ compensation cases in Illinois and Missouri. She explains why estate plans should reflect a person’s family circumstances and wishes, and why planning can matter for younger adults with children as well as older people. The conversation also covers what clients can bring to an initial estate-planning discussion and how a will, trust or other document may fit their needs.

Marcum also talks about the firm’s injury-related legal work and her ties to the Alton and Godfrey area. She shares her involvement with Riverbend Head Start, Mustache March for PD and Spanky Fest, which raises funds for the Grafton Police Department.
