Power of Attorney

There may be times in a person's life when he or she may be incapable of handling his or her own affairs and desire another trusted person to take on his or her duties by giving that trusted person power and authority over his or her assets and properties to administer and manage matters such as paying household bills, assisting in financial decision-making, executing documents and instruments on his or her behalf, etc. The firm can assist you by creating a power of attorney to serve your needs when these circumstances occur.

Advanced Health Care Directives & Preneed Guardians

Advanced health care directives should be considered whenever you are planning an estate.  Advanced health care directives typically consists of a living will and designation of health care surrogates. A living will allows you to state your wishes for end-of-life medical care in the event that you are no longer able to express such wishes. A designation of health care surrogates allows you to name representatives to make medical decisions on your behalf in the event you are unable to make them yourself. 


In addition, because parents worry about who will care for their children in the unfortunate event they pass before the children reach the age of majority, the firm is here to help you by establishing preneed guardians for the benefit of your children and your peace of mind. 

Summary Administration

Summary Administration is a probate process, applying to certain estates and estates valued at or under $75,000 (excluding homestead property), whereby the court administers and probates the decedent's estate through a summary and expedited process. The firm can help you determine whether the decedent's estate qualifies for summary administration and may be able to represent you in probating an estate through the summary administration process.
