Durable Power of Attorney
You can use a power of attorney to legally authorize another person to handle your financial affairs during your lifetime if you become incapacitated or are otherwise unable to do so.
A Sense of Security for You and Your Loved Ones
Health Care Proxy
This is similar to a power of attorney, except it is only for health care decisions. The proxy appoints someone that will make those decisions for you in the event that you are unable to make the decisions yourself.
Living Will
This legal tool is used to make end-of-life decisions about health care in the event that you become incapacitated. Although it can be difficult to have to think about these kinds of situations, planning ahead will guide your loved ones and ensure that your wishes are carried out, avoiding any uncertainty among your family members or medical care providers.
