Know Your Rights! Wills and Successions Event at Terrebonne Parish Library

Southeast Louisiana Legal Services and the Terrebonne Parish Library are hosting a free community workshop, Know Your Rights: Wills and Successions, on Wednesday, August 12, 2026 at 10:00 AM at the Dulac Branch Library. This informative and engaging session is designed to help community members understand the essentials of wills, estates, and successions in plain, easy-to-understand terms. Whether you are creating your first will, updating an existing one, or simply want to learn how to protect your family's future and legacy, this workshop will provide valuable guidance and practical information. Topics will cover the basics of estate planning, how successions work in Louisiana, and what steps you can take now to ensure your wishes are carried out and your loved ones are protected. This is a particularly important topic in Louisiana, where succession laws are unique compared to the rest of the country and where many families find themselves navigating the process without the legal guidance they need.
