Estate Planning
Some people think that only the very wealthy or those with complicated assets need wills. However, there are many good reasons to do estate planning, such as appointing a guardian for your children, deciding who receives your property, to protect your business, and to make difficult times less difficult.

Will
Healthcare Directive
Living Trust
The heart of every estate plan is a will, also known as a last will and testament. This legal document puts you in control of who inherits your property and who would take care of your children if it were ever necessary. Without a will, state law determines these issues. Your will also allows you to name an executor (sometimes called a “personal representative”) to carry out our wishes. And you can appoint a trusted person to manage property left to young people.

There are many reasons you may want a prenuptial agreement. No longer just a tool for the very wealthy to protect their assets from a divorce, more and more couples are using these agreements to bring certainty and predictability to their financial futures.
People who get prenuptial agreements include those who:
- own assets prior to the marriage that they want to protect from division during a divorce
- have children from a previous relationship and want to protect their future inheritance
- have business interests that they would like to keep separate from their spouse is the marriage fails, or
- want to pre-determine whether one spouse will pay the other alimony during separation or divorce.

Durable Power of Attorney
A durable power of attorney ensures that someone you trust (called your "agent" or "attorney-in-fact") will be on hand to manage the many practical, financial tasks that will arise if you become incapacitated. For example, bills must be paid, bank deposits must be made and someone must handle insurance and benefits paperwork. In most cases, a durable power of attorney for finances is the best way to take care of tasks like these. You can also give your attorney-in-fact authority over your digital assets.
