San Francisco wills lawyer experienced in creating living wills

An Advance Health Care Directive, often referred to as a “Living Will”, is an important part of your estate plan. This document, usually created by a wills attorney, allows you to specify your desires regarding your medical care in the event that you are unable to speak for yourself, ensuring that your wishes are carried out, and removing the burden of making these decisions from loved ones.

A durable power of attorney for finances may be appropriate to include in your estate plan. This document takes place when you are not able to take care of your financial affairs. The power of attorney can be as broad or narrow as you desire. Without a durable power of attorney for finances, Conservatorship proceedings may need to be commenced in the event that your signature is required to complete a financial transaction.
