POWERS OF ATTORNEY & ADVANCE DIRECTIVES

Estate planning isn't only about what happens after you're gone, it's also about preparing for the possibility that you may someday be unable to make decisions for yourself. Powers of attorney and advance directives allow you to choose, in advance, who will make important decisions on your behalf.

Financial Power of Attorney
A financial power of attorney designates someone you trust to manage your finances: paying bills, handling banking, or managing property, if you are unable to do so yourself.

Medical Power of Attorney & Advance Directive
A medical power of attorney appoints someone to make healthcare decisions for you if you can't communicate your wishes. An advance directive (sometimes called a living will) lets you document your preferences regarding end-of-life care and medical treatment.
​
Without these documents in place, your family may need to petition a court for guardianship or conservatorship — a process that can be costly, time-consuming, and stressful. Putting these documents in place now can spare your loved ones that burden later.
