Proper, Thorough Estate Planning Can Prevent the Need for a Guardianship
The decision to petition a court to have a loved one declared disabled or incapacitated is very difficult — and the process can be draining. In order to avoid court involvement in incapacity issues that may arise in the future, many clients address this possibility with specific power of attorney documents and other estate planning tools that make their wishes clear. Such private documents can address medical care and designate a personally selected decision maker that could step up and help, should an incapacity develop later in life.
There are many life changes and other situations that may prompt you to begin considering your need for a will, trust and other estate planning documents. When you do, Ms. Martin can consider your overall situation and recommend actions that will avoid putting those you leave behind through more pain than necessary. Putting the right documents in place need not be difficult or costly.
