WILL DRAFTING
It is important to plan your own will to establish clearly what you want to happen with your property and estate after your death. A will also benefits your loved ones as well.
TRUSTS
At the most basic level, a trust is a legal relationship in which one person has possession of a certain property while another person maintains legal title. A trust has three key elements: a trustee, a beneficiary, and a trust property.
HEALTH CARE DIRECTIVES
An advance directive is a document that specifies the type of medical and personal care you would want should you lose the ability to make and communicate your own decisions. Your advance directive can specify who will make and communicate decisions for you, and it can set out the circumstances under which you would not like your life to be prolonged if, for example, you were in a coma with no reasonable chance of recovery.
