LGE Community CU offers 21 accounts, each with its own rules for what happens when a member dies. As a membership-based credit union, LGE Community CU serves residents and employees in 15 northwest Georgia counties: Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Cherokee, Cobb, Dade, Douglas, Floyd, Fulton, Gordon, Murray, Paulding, Polk, Walker, and Whitfield. Family members of existing members and employees of Partner Group companies are also eligible. Mailing address: P.O. Box 1188, Marietta, GA 30061-9974. Multiple branch locations across metro Atlanta and northwest Georgia. Some transfer automatically to a named beneficiary, others can be held in a trust, and a few may require probate if no plan is in place.
LGE Community CU handles beneficiary designations in branch, by mail, and by phone. Accounts can also be retitled into a trust to keep them out of probate entirely.
There are two sides to estate planning at LGE Community CU: setting things up while you're alive, and the process survivors follow after a death.

Two things, neither of which is legal advice from LGE. LGE Investment Group offers consultations; Ronnie Shelby (770-421-2680, Ronnie.Shelby@lgeinvest-lpl.com) is its retirement and estate planning specialist, serving the Canton, Dallas, Kennesaw, Marietta, West Cobb, and Cartersville branches, with securities and advisory services offered through LPL Financial (Member FINRA/SIPC; not NCUA insured). Separately, LGE has a member partnership with Trust & Will, an online estate planning platform, covering wills, trusts, healthcare directives, and powers of attorney (lgeccu.org/trust-and-will.html). The LGE page currently shows conflicting discount figures -- a 20% headline and a 10% call-to-action -- so confirm the rate at sign-up. Those documents are prepared by Trust & Will, not LGE, and LGE does not give legal advice on estate or probate matters.
