A minimalist estate plan that includes a will and power of attorney for health care might hold up under routine, predictable circumstances, but it can easily fall short when tilings go sideways and become more complicated. A will with outright distributions to a beneficiary who isn’t financially responsible, disabled, or a substance abuser might lead to undesired outcomes. Signing a power of attorney for health care before surgery might be fine for a known one-off occurrence. However, that document might not name a backup or authorize admission to a nursing home. It also doesn’t authorize someone to handle your finances. Do not let the bare minimum leave your family vulnerable, Schedule an appointment so we can build an estate plan that gives lasting protection. 172125 172125
