LIVING TRUST
A living trust is a legal document created by you (the “Grantor”) during your lifetime in order to legalize your wishes regarding your assets and dependents after your death. The Living Trust, unlike a Last Will & Testament is treated as a separate legal entity. When the Trust is created, your assets are placed into the Trust. After death, probate is NOT necessary, thereby saving your family time, money and stress.
LIVING WILL
An Advance Directive (also known as a Living Will) specifies your desires to doctors and hospitals regarding medical treatments and end of life procedures in situations when you are unable to make decisions on your own
HEALTHCARE PROXY
A Healthcare Proxy allows you (the “Principal”) to appoint a third party (the “Agent”) to make healthcare decisions on your behalf if you are in a state where you are unable to make a decision for yourself
POWER OF ATTORNEY
Allows an agent to conduct financial business on behalf of the Principal. A Healthcare Proxy allows an agent to make healthcare decisions on behalf of the Principal when the Principal cannot make those decisions him or herself

GUARDIANSHIP
Guardianship is a legal process used to protect individuals who are unable to care for their own well-being due to infancy, incapacity or disability. A court will appoint a legal guardian to care for an individual, known as a ward, who is in need of special protection. Legal guardians have the legal authority to make decisions for their ward and represent their ward’s personal and financial interests.
QDOT TRUST
A Qualifying Domestic Trust (QDOT) is a special kind of trust that allows taxpayers who survive a deceased spouse to take the marital deduction on estate taxes, even if the surviving spouse is not a U.S. citizen
