Facebook has recently implemented a legacy contact, which gives you the option to give a designated individual access to some aspects of your Facebook account after you pass away. Google instituted a similar Inactive Account Manager in 2013. Both are responses to an increasingly common dilemma as individuals pass away "owning" many Internet accounts and identities.

Next Wednesday evening, join Rebecca J. Benson and Karen B. Mariscal of Margolis & Bloom, for a presentation on guardianship, special needs estate planning, and the ABLE Act in Wellesley. Jamie Bush from Commonwealth Financial Group will also discuss special needs financial planning.

The program will take place on Wednesday, March 18th, beginning at 7:00 p.m. at the Wellesley Unitarian Church located on 309 Washington Street.
