Last Will and Testaments
Your Will provides for the distribution of your property after your death, and is the centerpiece of most estate planning. In addition, objectives of a will can include the nomination of an personal representative, the designation of a guardian for minor children, and/or establishment of a trust.

Trusts
A Trust is a fiduciary arrangement that enables a third party to hold your assets on behalf of your beneficiaries. Establishing a trust provides legal protection for your assets, helping to ensure the assets are distributed according to your wishes.

Powers of Attorney
A Power of Attorney is a legal authorization permitting someone other than you to make decisions on your behalf in certain matters. In estate planning, the goal of establishing a power of attorney is generally to designate who is authorized to make decisions for you in the event that you become incapacitated.

Advance Medical Directives & Living Wills
Advance Medical Directives, including Living Wills, are written, legal instructions regarding your medical treatment that are used to determine end-of-life care, in the event that you are unable to make decisions for yourself. They ensure your wishes are honored, relieve your family members from making difficult decisions at a time of crisis, and may also address your preferences concerning organ and tissue donation.

Guardianships
Guardianships establish the legal authority to make decisions for another person, such as a minor whose parents are not available; a person who is unable to make their own decisions due to a mental disability or illness; or an elderly person who can no longer care for themselves.
