It is important when creating your estate plan to include a durable power of attorney, healthcare power of attorney, and living will. A durable power of attorney ensures you have someone to make financial and other important decisions for you in the event you are unable to do so on your own. A durable power of attorney protects your finances and affairs by ensuring you have someone you trust managing them in the event you are incapacitated. A healthcare power of attorney designates someone you trust to make decisions about your medical care in the event you are unable to do so. A living will allows you to provide your preferences regarding end-of-life care to give your loved ones peace of mind and guidance during difficult times.

Without a durable power of attorney, healthcare power of attorney, and living will, if you become
incapacitated, the Court could appoint a third-party guardian over you to manage your affairs. Don’t let this happen to you. Allow the estate planning attorneys at Marcellino & Tyson to craft your estate plan, including a durable power of attorney, healthcare power of attorney, and living will to protect what’s yours.
