Included Documents:


    Wills. 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. Making a will rarely involves
    complicated legal rules. If you're like most people, you won't need a
    lawyer. With good do-it-yourself materials, it's simple and easy to make a
    will that takes care of basic concerns, such as leaving a home,
    investments, a small business, and personal items to your loved ones.
    Living Trusts. A revocable
    living trust, unlike a will, offers a fast, private, probate-free way to
    transfer one's property after death. Although a living trust is not a
    complete substitute for a will (it doesn't allow you to name a guardian
    for a child, for example), it can be a more efficient way to transfer
    property at death, especially large-ticket items such as a house.
    Transfer on Death Deeds. Transfer
    on death (TOD) deeds transfer property to your beneficiary when you die,
    without probate. Before your death, you still own the property, and you
    can revoke the deed (or make a new one) at any time. TOD deeds provide
    some of the best features of both wills and living trusts. Like living
    trusts, TOD deeds keep the property out of probate. Like wills, they are
    simple to make, revise, and revoke. So for many people, particularly those
    whose largest asset is their house, TOD deeds can replace the need for a
    living trust. (You'll still almost certainly need a will.)
    Financial Powers of Attorneys. 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.
    Health Care Directives (Living
    Will and Medical Power of Attorney). Spare your loved ones difficult
    decisions by laying out your wishes for medical care and naming someone to
    carry out your instructions. Includes a health care power of attorney and
    a living will.
    Letters to Survivors. Use the Letter
    to Survivors to leave your loved ones detailed explanations about your
    decisions. You can also use your letter to leave some general thoughts
    about your life.
    Final Arrangements. Plan a funeral
    or other ceremony and ease the burden on your loved ones. Describe your
    preferences for burial, cremation, memorials, obituaries, and more.
