Estate Planning Organizations

National Association of Estate Planners and Councils (NAEPC)

The National Association of Estate Planners & Councils (NAEPC) is the national network of affiliated estate planning councils and credentialed professionals drawn together to achieve excellence in estate planning.

NAEPC works in tandem with local affiliated estate planning councils to provide a forum for networking and education and encourages every qualified professional who is primarily engaged in estate planning to seek membership in their nearest council and attain the Accredited Estate Planner® (AEP®) designation and/or Estate Planning Law Specialist (EPLS) certification.

National Institute of Certified Estate Planners (NICEP)

  • We work with qualified financial, legal, and tax professionals who understand the importance of estate planning.
  • We train them to work together as a team to bring to every client a custom tailored estate plan.
  • We stress that every estate plan should be designed to preserve, protect, and pass on that individual's estate to whom they want, when they want, and how they want.
  • We think each client should also enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing their estate will be managed during their lifetime as they have directed, should they ever become incapacitated.
  • We believe every American adult deserves an estate plan that allows these goals to be accomplished in the most efficient manner available under the law, and that minimizes costs both now and in the future.
