From Prosecutor to Protector: Ivette Kuyateh on Avoiding Estate Nightmares

Description

What happens when good intentions turn into estate planning nightmares?

In this episode, Attorney Ivette Kuyateh, known as The Kingdom Shero Lawyer in Heels™️, joins host Jon Braddock to share how a former prosecutor became one of California’s most passionate advocates for family protection, financial empowerment, and legacy preservation.

With years of courtroom experience and hundreds of trials behind her, Ivette now helps families stay out of court — by avoiding the very mistakes she once saw tear loved ones apart.

Together, Jon and Ivette unpack some of the most common (and costly) estate planning missteps:

• The danger of “set it and forget it” trusts

• Why leaving assets directly to minor children can backfire

• How “I love you” wills can create chaos instead of clarity

• And the critical updates every family should make before it’s too late

This is a conversation about faith, family, and the power of planning ahead — so your legacy becomes a gift, not a burden.

Estate Planning Nightmares… and How to Avoid Them!

Because some secrets shouldn’t be taken to the grave.
