Estate Planning:
Any combination of the below may be right for you. Browse our descriptions and let us know if you have any questions about what is appropriate for your situation.
Will
Legal document expressing your intentions for the management and disbursement of assets, property, and money after death. Most people planning for their estates after death will prepare a Will.
Trust
Allows for a particular person, or "trustor", to manage your assets to ensure that any "beneficiaries" receive money or property at the appropriate time and in the appropriate way after your death. This may be a helpful way to provide for children without giving them all the responsibility of money managing.
Living Trust
A Trust created and implemented while you're alive. It can be revoked at any time. Benefits include avoiding probate (the court for wills) and accounting for situations other than death, such as disability or incapacity.
Living Will
Are you concerned about who will be making decisions on your behalf if you're in a coma? A Living Will is created to be implemented in specific situations such as this. It is a legally enforceable document that indicates your desires for specified situations when you are incapable of communicating your decisions.
Powers of Attorney
This includes General Powers of Attorney and Medical Powers of Attorney. Granting someone a power of attorney means they can make decisions and act on your behalf in specified situations. They may be particularly helpful for seniors with Alzheimer's, someone undergoing a high-risk surgery, or differently-abled children, among other situations.
