Last will & testament
A will is a legal document that leaves instructions for how your money and your property should be distributed after you die. This is the foundation of any estate plan. A will can be more or less complicated depending on your assets and property and what you want to do with them after death.
Advance healthcare directives
An advance health care directive allows you to make your end-of-life healthcare decisions before the end of your life. For example, course of treatment decisions can be made legally binding before anyone can question your ability to self-advocate.
Powers of attorney
Power of attorney allows you to appoint a person you trust to make important end-of-life decisions should you become incapacitated. Powers of attorney are generally very broad, but can be tailored to your needs. Picking the person to hold power of attorney should be decided very carefully.
Funeral arrangements & funeral representative
Planning ahead for your funeral can ensure that your wishes regarding your physical remains are faithfully followed. This can be added to a will or as a separate document.
Trusts
Trusts can take a variety of forms and depend on the assets of each person and what you want to do with them. They can be used to transfer specific property and assets to specific people.
