Wills

A will allows you to share your desires for how your belongings should be passed on after you die and who should care for your minor children or children with special needs. It brings peace of mind knowing your loved ones will have clear guidance during a difficult time. 

Trusts

A trust helps you manage and protect your assets, both now and after you die. By choosing a trusted person to oversee your estate, you can ensure your loved ones are cared for and your plans are carried out smoothly even after you are gone. 

Power of Attorney

A power of attorney allows you to choose someone you trust to step in and help with important financial or medical decisions if you are ever unable to make these decisions yourself. It is a simple way to make sure your wishes are honored and your physical and mental wellbeing is protected. 

Advance Directives

An advance directive gives you a voice in your medical care, even during moments when you cannot speak for yourself. An advance directive shares your healthcare preferences and names someone you trust to guide your care with compassion and clarity. 

Medicaid Trusts

A Medicaid trust - also called an irrevocable Medicaid asset protection trust - can help safeguard your savings while allowing you to qualify for Medicaid's long-term care benefits. It is a thoughtful way to plan ahead and preserve what matters most.

Guardianship

Guardianship is a court-appointed relationship that allows a responsible adult to make personal, financial, or medical decisions for someone who cannot manage those decisions on their own. It provides support, safety, and stability when a loved one needs it most.
