The main purpose of Estate Planning is setting your worldly affairs up so that NO ONE, after you leave this world, is left with any difficult decisions to make.
It is essential EVERYONE, regardless of wealth or property ownership status, have AT LEAST the following in place:
Last Will and Testament
Health Care Proxy
Living Will
Durable Power of Attorney

HPS combines this with a NY Living Will. You will also get a pocket card to carry with you.
This document details your wishes regarding life sustaining measures. These declarations are requirements to which your proxies and health care team(s) must adhere.

This document allows another person(s) to act as you regarding financial and property, both real and personal, matters, if (during your lifetime) are not available or unreachable. THIS IS A POWERFUL DOCUMENT as it will authorize another person, without your notification, to act as you.
We hear all the time that "funeral pre-planning is only for those who know they're dying!" Well, don't we all know we're going to die eventually?
Do you want to place that burden on your family and friends? Why not plan ahead for a increasingly expensive service ahead of time so that nobody left behind needs to make these decisions while they're grieving.
Contact any of our partnered Funeral Directors for more information and assistance in making the decisions YOU would want made.
If you need suggestions on bequests to charities or where to leave your pets, consider some of these options.
