You need a Power of Attorney. You need a Living Will. You need a Last Will and Testament. You may well need one or more Trusts set up either inter-vivos or Testamentarily.
Estate Forms and cookie-cutter estate documents rarely achieve all that they can or should. Most disregard the power and flexibility achieved by establishing one of a wide variety of Trust Instruments.
For that reason, it is important to discuss your unique desires and situation with an experienced Trust and Estates professional.
