Financial power of attorney (POA)
Appoints someone you trust in charge of handling your finances if you are unable to do so yourself.
LegalZoom Living Will
Also known as an advance health care directive, a living will allows you to declare your end-of-life health care preferences and select someone to make those decisions for you in the event that you can't do so yourself.

Frequently asked questions
-
Both last wills and living trusts both lay out how to transfer your assets after you pass, but there are a few key differences between them.
Last wills tend to be easier to set up, but they may result in your beneficiaries having to deal with the probate court process. This can mean delays and additional expenses. A fully funded living trust can help avoid probate, but transferring your assets into a trust can involve additional time and maintenance. -
No, but we highly recommend it. Once you purchase an Estate Plan Bundle, we encourage you to schedule a call with an attorney from our network before starting the questionnaire to create your documents. Based on your needs, where you live, and the value of your assets, they'll help you validate if a last will or a living trust is right for you.

-
An estate plan is a set of documents that lays out a plan for what you want to happen to your assets upon death. You also spell out who will be in charge of your financial and healthcare decisions if you're unable to do so yourself. Estate plans typically include a last will or living trust, a health care directive, and a power of attorney for finances. Does everyone need an estate plan? Estate plans are not just for the wealthy or people with children. Everyone can benefit from spelling out their wishes upon death or incapacity.
