Wills & Probates
Trusted Will & Probate Attorney
Everyone should prepare three basic documents: A will, living will, and power of attorney for health care documents
before they become incapacitated or die to ensure that their personal affairs and property are handled in accordance with their wishes.
Wills
No matter how much or how little you think you may have, you still need a will to ensure that your assets are distributed as you wish. You will ensure that the person you desire will act to handle your estate. If you have children, you can also designate the person(s) you wish to be their guardian(s) should you die before they are adults.
Living Wills
A living will allows you to direct others as to whether you wish to be artificially provided food and liquid should you become incapacitated (force fed). It also allows you to designate which, if any, organs you wish to donate.
Power of Attorney for Health Care
This document allows you to appoint a person to make health care decisions for you in the event you become incapacitated and unable to make those decisions yourself. The person you appoint will have the authority to consent, to refuse to consent, or to withdraw consent to any care, treatment, service, or procedure to maintain, diagnose or treat a physical or mental condition.
