Basic Estate Planning involves the preparation of a Last Will and Testament, a Financial Power of Attorney, and an Advance Directive for Healthcare.

​

I generally recommend all three for my clients.  The Financial Power of Attorney and the Advance Directive for Healthcare are based on forms prepared by the Georgia State Legislature (Statutory Forms).  The latest Financial Power of Attorney is relatively new having been placed into law in 2017.

​

Living Wills are not normally prepared any more as the contents of a typical living will are now incorporated into the Advance Directive for Healthcare.
