Making a valid Last Will and Testament is one of the best gifts that you can leave to your loved ones.

The simple actions of naming an executor and being clear in writing about your last wishes can mean the difference between the people you love being able to properly administer your estate and having to hire lawyers later to sort out the mess.

We prepare simple, easy to understand wills that ensure that your loved ones are properly protected, for a reasonable flat rate.

In addition to Wills, we also prepare Powers of Attorney, for both personal care matters and property. Powers of attorney are very important documents which are unfortunately sometimes overlooked.

If you become incapacitated at any time, even temporarily, you may require someone else to step in for you in order to manage your financial affairs, or make important health care decisions for you.

Powers of Attorney for Personal Care (also sometimes called “living wills”) allow you to designate someone to make important health decisions for you if you are incapacitated. They also allow you to clearly indicate to your loved ones what you do and do not want when it comes to medical treatment.

Powers of attorney for property are also very important. They allow someone to step in and manage your financial affairs during any period when you are unable to do so. These can be invaluable in the event that there are financial matters which need to be attended to and you are unable to do so yourself.

Both documents are inexpensive to prepare and critically important.
