Estate Planning
We all strive to live a long, healthy life. However, there are no guarantees. Though it's not an uplifting subject, it's very important that people prepare for the unexpected and take measures to ensure that in the case of a tragic loss of life, their family is protected and not burdened with unnecessary stress and hardships. Our Richardson estate planning attorney can explain to you the steps to take to provide for your family in the case of your absence. We handle wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and guardianship. Contact our firm today and allow us to help you start planning for your future.
At the Gauthier Law Firm, we understand how important your estate plan is to preserving your legacy. We are often asked about what documents the estate plan will include. For you, we will draft the following:
- Medical Directive – This is also known as your living will. This document governs whether of not life sustaining treatments will be used to keep you comfortable or prolong your life.
- Power of Attorney – This allows someone to manager your money and property in the event that you are incapable of doing so at the time.
- Medical Power of Attorney – This allows someone to make medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so at the time.
- HIPAA Release – This allows patients to authorize their health provider to disclose or share information with another party or physician.
- Last Will and Testament – This dictates how property will be distributed and to who it will be distributed to after you pass away.
We can also draft revocable and irrevocable trusts! A Trust is an excellent way to preserver your legacy and your wealth and works as a way to avoid the probate process.
