A Will is a document which provides the manner in which a person's property (assets and liabilities) will be distributed after death. 



A Will controls what happens to your estate when you die, but what if you are unable to manage your affairs, to understand what is going on, or to sign your own name? As we get older, there will come a time when we need someone else to assist us with our financial and legal affairs. A properly drawn Power of Attorney will designate who can act for you, in what circumstances they can act, and just what they can do on your behalf.



A Living Will is effective when a patient is diagnosed with a terminal and irreversible condition and cannot survive without extraordinary medical procedures.
