Wills, Healthcare Directives, and Powers of Attorney

A will is an important document for everyone to have. This presentation will discuss essential information to gather and questions to consider before having a will made. Learn what your will should include, the formal requirements for making a will, whom you should name as your executor, and what happens if you die and you do not have a will.

In addition to a will, everyone should have a Healthcare Directive and a Power of Attorney. Learn what these documents are, whom you should appoint, when does a power of attorney take effect, and what happens if you don’t have a power of attorney and are no longer competent to look after your financial affairs.
