Keeping The Peace: Gifting Personal Property to Avoid Disputes
September 18th, 2025 – 4 pm
A workshop exclusively for Legacy Protection Plan members and their guests.
The $10 Pie Pan That Cost $15,000 in Legal Fees
Protect Your Family From the Personal Property Battle That Destroys Relationships
The pie pan that tore a family apart.
Two siblings who grew up baking with their grandmother ended up in court—fighting over a simple, chipped pie pan worth maybe $10. After a bitter legal battle that cost thousands and nearly destroyed their relationship, they now share custody of a pie pan—six months each.
This wasn’t about money. It was about memories, comfort, and the love that pan represented.
This could be your children.
Your Wedding Ring Is More Dangerous Than Your Stock Portfolio
While you’ve carefully planned your financial legacy through your trust and will, have you thought about who gets your wedding ring? Your father’s watch? The quilt your mother made?
These “small” items cause the biggest family fights.
Personal belongings carry the deepest emotional weight when families are grieving. A coffee mug becomes a symbol of love. A book represents shared memories. Without clear guidance, your children may battle over these treasures while mourning your loss.
You Can Prevent This Heartbreak With One Simple Document
At our “Keeping the Peace” workshop, estate planning attorney Whitney Hey will guide you through creating a personal property memorandum—a letter to your loved ones that removes all guesswork about your most meaningful possessions.
In Just One Hour, You’ll:
- Learn the legal framework that protects your wishes
- Identify which items matter most to your family
- Draft your personalized memorandum with expert guidance
- Ensure your legacy brings your family together, not tears them apart

Whitney first became interested in going to law school when an interfamily conflict meant that a guardianship hearing was necessary for her grandmother, and she attended the hearing as moral support.
Whitney’s goal is to help make the estate planning process as easy as possible for her clients, so that at the end of the day they feel confident that their wishes will be handled appropriately when they pass away.
When Whitney is not at work, she enjoys reading science and historical fiction. She is a Colorado native and enjoys hiking in the beautiful state of Colorado with her standard poodle Dax (who is named for Jadzia Dax from Star Trek DS9.) Whitney also enjoys learning new skills and searches out classes for new hobbies. Among her current hobbies are gardening, knitting, and stained glass.
