Coronavirus and You

As the coronavirus continues to spread, many of us wonder if the virus will affect us? It is more important now than ever to have your estate plan in place.

Having a Will is simply not enough in these unprecedented times. Consider what will happen if you become seriously ill… Who will take charge of your health care decisions and your finances to ensure my bills are paid?

A Health Care Power of Attorney is a document that allows you to appoint a person you trust to make health care and medical decisions for you when you are unable to.

A Durable Power of Attorney for Finances is a document that allows you to appoint a person you trust to conduct financial business for you as your agent if you are unable to manage your financial affairs.

Having these two documents is crucial for all of us. Contact us and we will happy to discuss both these documents with you.
