Wills and Estate Planning
Farrow Hicks Law advises on and prepares wills, powers of attorney, trusts, and other documents in the areas of estate and tax planning, asset protection, succession planning and related areas.
A will legally appoints a person to serve as an executor to administer your estate, and stipulates how you want your estate distributed. It sets out how beneficiaries are to receive their inheritance. In your will, you may appoint a guardian for any minor children.
A power of attorney is a legal document that appoints a person to carry out financial duties on your behalf when you are incapacitated or otherwise unable to handle your own financial affairs.
A personal care directive appoints a person to be your medical decision maker when you are incapacitated. The document lets you explain what medical interventions, if any, you would like taken on your behalf.
