Benjamin Turshen

Most people put off estate planning because it feels overwhelming, abstract, or like something they'll get to "eventually." Ben Turshen understands that instinct, and he also knows what happens when "eventually" comes too late.

After he and his wife each survived separate near-death experiences just weeks apart, Ben stopped seeing estate planning as paperwork. He saw it for what it actually is: the single most important thing you can do to protect the people you love from confusion, conflict, and financial devastation when something unexpected happens.

Ben started his career at a top New York City law firm handling complex legal matters before founding Solace Estate Planning to serve families and business owners in Ohio and New York. He works across the full spectrum of estate planning, including Wills and Trusts, Medicaid and Long-Term Care Planning, Elder Law, and Asset Protection. His approach is calm, thorough, and built around making difficult decisions feel manageable.

Whether you're creating your first plan or reviewing one that's been sitting in a drawer for years, Ben will help you get clear on what actually needs to happen, explain your options in plain language, and put a plan in place that works.
