While you’re alive, documents like Powers of Attorney, Representation Agreements, and Advance Directives allow you to appoint trusted individuals to make legal and financial decisions or healthcare and personal care decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so.

A Will takes effect after death, outlining how your assets will be distributed and who will care for minor children, giving you peace of mind that your wishes will be respected.
